Default Finally!

In the late 80's, I lusted after an FXRS. Back then, starting a young family and having no cash, no chance.

So for the last few years I've been looking and finally found this one:



Exactly what I've been looking for. Finding one of these in stock condition is hard. And only 20k miles!

Ok, so any advice on how to ship that from the East Coast?

Excellent motorcycle!

Very nice looking bike. I think you can call woodhouse in blair, they ship cars and trucks daily and the freight services are always looking for back hauls. Welcome from northeast nebraska (rosalie).
