Question

I just found this thread after posting a new bad Boy question.
Can you tell me about any issues with this model?
What factory colors did it come in?
Is the engine rubber mounted?
Carb or efi?
Thanks

Different animal all together. Twin Cams Softies 2000+ have balanced engines and ride like a Cadillac compared to an old evo. But the shake is what gives it soul.
