Default Feels Great to be on a Shovel

Picked up this 1972 FLH a couple months ago. Slowly been getting it safe enough to ride. Had to rebuild both master cylinders, rebulilt rear drum and front caliper. Brake lights didnt work. Put a new Rivera Primo Clutch in...etc. And of course putting my own spin on it. I love this motorcycle and it is so much fun to ride. Cant wait to talk with you all.
Day i picked it up.









Took it to work today for the first time.

Really like how the bike has the early EVO Heritage paint scheme.

Great looking shovel you have there. I have always liked the look of a stripped down FL.
