Default I fought the temptation

I decided not to join the 21 Century and buy that new 2006 FXST. That means I have more money to put into rebuilding my IRONHEAD!!!! WOOOHOOOO!!!!!!! I am going to strip it down to the frame, crack open the engine and rebuild it from the ground up. When I am done, it will be better then new.[sm=biker2.gif]
