I am looking at the fuel gauge, tack & speedo on that 26 year old bike and noticing they are identical to my 2016. R&D department at Harley is on it!!

 

If only I could justify spending the money.

 

"Stephanie doesn't care about the model. She split up with her hubby & just wants to **** him off. Let's know when her 'OBIT' hits the newspaper. LMAO.

 

My 1980 Yamaha Maxim 650 had a flip up seat with a tray on top of the battery. But the seat was hard as hell.

 

I'll never understand a person trying to sell anything and not making any effort to make it look presentable.

 

I went to see a Deluxe with a friend that was looking to buy his first Harley. We drove to a beautiful gated neighborhood, houses around $1 million. We arrived at the house having been buzzed in by the security guard and the dude selling the bike is nowhere to be seen. Finally he opened the garage and you could literally blow dust off this bike (I think a 2008 Deluxe).

The bike was rusted with pitting on the chrome, it had maybe 3000 miles on it, he wanted way too much. It wouldn't start either. Neither of us could believe the guy hadn't even bothered to wipe the bike down and make sure it was running. We left immediately.

 

I just never liked the look

 

I'm still kicking myself for selling mine and it's been 24 years!

 

A quarter fairing does wonders for the looks....

 

Makes me wonder what if any maintenance did they do. When I bought my S/S the guy had it in a heated/cooled garage covered in sheets and blankets, pictures of the bike all over the walls. A 3 ring binder filled with every receipt for work ever done. Never had an ounce of trouble from it in 5 years.
