Spanners is taking a short break from the forum....he has a low tolerance for bullshit and it was making him bitter and twisted along with all the Twinkie haters , he doesn't like the Dyna forum.
Hate TC's as much as you like but only if you've owned one for a year and actually ridden it.
BTW I went riding the other day with a bunch of guys and I couldn't keep up with a TC 93ci and all it had was pipes and ignition, so EVO's with a cam, pipes and a tuned carb can't blow away a TC.


Enjoy your riding boys !!! I sure as hell am

He's got thick skin alright believe me ... and he's not pissed at anyone, just out riding and enjoying life and his bike.
