Enjoy the geeeezer forum, not near as much fun or exciting as the softail forum. Sorry to see you leaving us, come back and visit anytime. My goal is to keep the Deuce and get a bagger. Until then....I'm keepin the Deuce.

I plan on owning one of each someday..

A sporty or buell or ducati when I want to rip up some twisties.
A chop or bob of some kind with more inches than my 1st car.
A glide of somekind, or maybe a road king custom to do the miles.
An old beater of some kind to get my wrenching kicks on.

... don't want much do I. I guess I shoulda checked a better box in school:

What I want to be when I grow up...
____ Doctor
____ Lawyer
____ Broker
____ Realestate Developer
____ Indian Chief
____ NASA Physicist
____ Politician
____ Engineer
____ Pie Taster
____ The poor bastard that holds the hose while they pump out septic tanks
____ Another schmo out on the production line in between a bunch of illegals

My last bike was a fatboy , I have to say the bagger handles a lot better than the softail . The ride is a lot smother and enjoyable. I have to say I wish I could have kept both bikes , but I'm not rich .

Exactly. The Touring bikes handle much better at low speeds than all the other bikes. They have zero flop due to the reversed triple trees.

Maybe someday I'll be old enough to drive a Glide.... Better not let my wife ride on one, or my softail will be GONE!
