It Lives!!!!!
Have been working all week on my 'Ol Springer. Got it out of 'moth *****'! It hasn't run or been ridden since '98!!
Got the urge to hear a 'dual fire' roar again.
An oil change, a new battery, a carb rebuild and some fresh gas and it fired right up!
Went for a short ride just to make sure everything was working as it should. Was great to hear that pop...pop...pop again!!
I had forgotten how nimble it is...compared to our 'bagger'!!

That's it! Ol' #163, first year for the 'new' Springer!! Bought it new in late '87.
Sorry, no more pix...don't have a digital camera or a cell phone w/a camera.
I'll be going to Maryland next month, maybe I can get my Granddaughter to take some pix and show me how to post them.

She's been a good ol' cruiser. Pretty much stock inside.
Wanted to keep the Anniversary Paint scheme for posterity.
Bought a set of decals with it...JIC I ever wanted to change the paint.
