Just about the only thing not stock on my 'new' FXR are these "Live to Ride..." bits:






Total 80's cheese.

I think I might just keep them.

Don't know about the 80's, mine are on my 93:



I'd pull a couple of them off, except I don't remember where I put the originals...

We can incinerate those if you'd like.

I wish mine were all chrome rather than having the gold inlay. I'd keep them.

I think he means they are 80s-ish, and I tend to agree. When I see one one it reminds me of the 80s.

And that is not necessarily a bad thing.

I was pretty thin in the '80's. Fond memories.

Yeah, 80's-ish. Mine's a '90. Definitely 80's-ish. '93 is good too.

I think I'm going to keep this bike original. I'm calling those bits "period correct"...

I wouldn't be caught dead with that played out crap. Nothing awesome about the 80's either.
