If I decide to get the Pan-American, I would sell the Electraglide... I don’t know what colour I would get in the PanAm, just probably whatever which one they could get… But Bob is doing his darndest to convince me to keep the Pan… It probably won’t take that much convincing… LOL

What does Darla think about all this?
Selling her to another family seems cruel.

I look back at all the motorcycles and dirt bikes I have owned wishing I would have kept them all.

neither one of my two kids would ride either of the two bikes… If so I’ll probably just give it to them… No grandkids on the horizon, or I just might throw tarps over them and give them to them when they’re 16.

For you it is the end if Darla is gone. Perhaps you can arrange for the new owner to take over this thread.
