Default RE: trade

I've always loved the Spingers, so my first thought was to do the trade. However, I have to agree with Citoriplus. Keep your bike and put a springer front end on it. That's what I'd like to do at some point. I've looked around, and there are some badass lookin' springer front ends out there that will cost around the same amount as the Harley springer front end. I think adding a springer to your bike will give you the best of both worlds. Plus, it will be more custom.

Hey Citoriplus, great idea about the front end swap. However isn't that the beginning of the dreaded "snowball effect".

No I don't think so,just getting a Harley is probably the real cause.

To trade or not to trade, that is the question.

Get a Cross Bones instead. It will be like the 04 Springer and your 07 Custom mixed together. Best of both worlds!
