hey, thanks for the sign up

age 57( although how I made it that far after 3 wives)

have owned and fettled(quite often) 77 flh shovel for nearly 12 yrs, done practicly everything to it myself including complete rewire as old stuff was getting a bit shabby. everything bog standard except for carb, had to get an s&s due to availability of fuel type in uk. how do you feel about changing from points to electric and would also like to free up some of that shovelhead grunt via new pipes etc any tips would be appreciated.

hope for long association and if there is anything I can help with don't hesitate to ask.

Welcome to forums. Sparks Nevada here. Answer to question points to electronic was the best thing done to mine went with Dyna ign. Double plug heads has been trouble free going on 15 years plus. And all I do is change spark plugs out once in awhile. Trouble free system. Ride Safe. Wild Bill
