Default I love me an EVO!!

Hey guys, I introduced my self to the Newbie forum, but wanted to knock on the door to where I belong!

I've been through a bunch of bikes over the years, but currently I ride a wonderful 95 FLSTC that I bought with only 13,ooo miles on her, garage kept, a ton of money poured into her and babied her whole life. I haven't had her too long then recently my buddy tells me he'd be willing to sell me his EG after I'd been hounding him to sell it, but then bought my current scoot when I couldn't resist. I can't afford to have both so figured I'd put the Heritage on ebay and see if anyone bites...

...If not I'll keep on lovin her, by making her more my style and take off the Edelbrocks and put on a super E, 16" ape hangers, Paul Yaffe skirt blowers, WW's and lower the rear a bit.

For sale:

Welcome, I have a 1995 Standard Dresser (bought new), don't sell the Evo, start eating Bologna and switch to Cool-Aid for a year, with the Money you save you can get that other Bike.

What year is the EG?

If you sell that EVO for a TC you will be kicking yourself in the *** for years to come.

Keep the Heritage.
The only downside to a softtail is taking apart the rear jug.
Just my 2 cents.

I do appreciate the opinions from fellow EVO lovers, trust me! But the Electra Glide is a 93...with only 15k pampered miles! Lots of money dumped into it as well, much like mine but the EG is nice for the wife and I to take weekend trips on. I build custom scoots too so I always have a bobber in the shop to tear around town on...

...But I DO love this Heritage!

If you love the bike you have why do you want to replace it?

What about the EG makes you think it is a better bike?
