As I've mentioned, I sold the Softail when I went back to Japan. bought the Busa on a trip back to Sacto in '07. I finally moved back in 3/08. I'll be 65 this year and I plan to get some sort of Harley this December, unless the lay me off at work.
I love big rice almost as much -- ALMOST as much as a good Harley. So I'll keep this one and maybe a Street Glide or some such.
This is a pretty good bike for a 64-yearold but it's slow. i'm thinking of putting apes on it.
I did in fact have hair once. Guy Clark, Bob Weir, me and Minor Wilson out behind the Fillmore West on Brady Street.

Isn't that amazing how some think the baggers are just for older riders? It never ceases to amaze me how the youngster find ways to disrespect you one way or the other. Words like Geezer Glide, huh! Can't get no respect.
It's great to see the enthusiasm and love for riding is still there, proving bikers never die (or age), they just fade away. I'm 53 and my Softail fits my skeleton just right, any acke or pain seems to vanish once I straddle the bike, nice to know not all the sceniors have 'retired" to baggers..
60 and just bought my first harley two months ago . it's a ultra limited. it's actually too heavy so will probably get a heritage in the next couple of years. mike
