Prolly a 1968/69 FLH.......paint it blue-n-white.....my old man had one, I was only 7 but I do remember that it had a bigazz single seat, white in color. Mom made him sell it, actually I think he traded for a p/u, b'cuz he was known to drink a few Black Labels once & awhile....... [sm=guilty.gif]

I can recall him trying to kick that big beotch over, drunk......ah the good ol' dayz

Better make it a '65 FL then, 'cause the '64s were kick only!
