New Softail Owner
I have just added a second bike to the fleet here at our home. It belongs to my wife and she couldn't be happier with her purchase.
She has been riding for 2 years now and I started her off on a 1984 Honda VT700 Shadow. She started complaining that she wanted a shorter bike with more power and then she would ride more. So I found a 1982 Honda V45 Magna 750 and she rode that for a year. This year she put on over 1k and rides every day. The year before she was lucky to do 500 miles.
Well I challenged her with the Magna to ride more and if she did I would get her a nice bike. Well we where not really ready to buy but his gem came up. So the new addition is a 2001 Harley Deuce EFI with 9k miles. Basically a nice stock bike that spent its life being used on weekends.
So now I get to lurk in both forums for the touring and softail.

Nice colors on that Deuce. Congrats! First thing to do is put a lowering kit or shocks on it, bring the back end down an inch to cover the tire.
And yank off those reflectors.
