Default 5000 on the clock
Rolled 5k miles on my '03 Deuce today, somewhere on State Line Rd, along the WI/IL state border. Haven't been on here in awhile so I figured I share.... beautiful day today!

You don't mean that your odometer just rolled over to 5,000 miles on a 13 year old bike, do you?

Yes sir... I was lucky enough to pick it up last year in March, bone stock from the original owner with only 1100miles! Perfect doner bike. I completed this build last year around this very time.

I would guess he has adjustable ride shocks. It is let down when parked and pic is snapped.

That is a super sharp looking bike, but you need to ride it more.
