Default Winter Project
Sold my 14 Low Rider and was looking for something else. Not what I was looking for but now own a $500 motorcycle. 2001 FXSTD that don't run; forks leak, needs tires and brakes. Chrome pealing; in short a basket case. This should keep me busy, Was told it ran till they jumped it off with a running 1 ton diesel.
