Is there such a thing as a 77 FXE Willie G Edition?

Just believing an '85-'86 FXWG [or FXE] is just another "Duo-Glide" speaks Volumes...especially from someone who cannot really distinguish an FXR from an FLT...

The dimensions of the 4 speed frame changed when the evo motor went in, because the evo motor is about 1" taller than a shovel.
But it's all the same, right?😉

Do you not know that shovels used a "dry" primary????? My primary is indeed 'Wet" is utilizes its own oil as opposed to using engine oil removed from the primary like earlier shovels did. You know that right????
The pogo I showed you was from a Knuckle head, the seat t was from a VL, the pogo you refer to is for earlier f&J models, it uses a bushing to make up the difference, but you probably knew that too....right.

Like I said in my earlier post, there are a few of you guys here that get really butt hurt when someone comes along and refutes what you try to pawn off as knowledge.......you resort to name calling and simply lack the verbal skills to convey your point much less have the ability to understand another point of view. Its OK, I will keep responding with fact, while you hurl **** and call names.........

Nothing. Nothing changed.
Has a steering neck and takes a swingarm, so they're all the same, right?

You never responded about putting a pogo on a 85/86.
I assume that's because you don't know.

Make sure you know who said what, and who you're talking to before you respond. That wasn't me.

If/when you find a 85/86, study it and educate yourself.

Well if we're to a point where you feel superior enough to lecture, maybe the education is something you're in dire need of. The argument started over the frames, now you claim because the hole is not there its not a duo glide frame??? What is it then........? What kind of a frame is it? Why dont you study a bit, then get back to me.......you seem to think you know what it ISN't
tell me what it is then.............and what changed....
