Introduced the Night Train to my old 91 FXRS. I finally was able to drive to PA to pick up my bike which has been sitting at my Ex Wife's house for 4 years. Now to get it up and running again.

Secondly, received my Arlen Ness 3" forward extensions and wasn't that bad to install. Due to the aftermarket shift linkage, I had to order new heim joints in order to install the extended linkage. Now I wait

Was your ex wife holding your bike for ransom? Nice to have 2 bikes in the stable.

Installed riser bushings while I was at Bike Week last week. I should have done it when I installed the apes. What a positive difference it made.

The suspense was killin' me. I just bought my '06 Deluxe a couple months ago. I was concerned about the cam chain tensioners since it had 41,000 miles on the clock. I removed the exhaust, and popped off the cam cover to look. I was happy to see the tensioners in near perfect shape! So, I can focus not on worrying about that, and focus on puttin' on enough miles to wear 'em out again!

LOL, No (Thanks goodness). She as nice enough to store it in my old garage until I was in a place where I could have the bike and not have to worry about the elements. She's happy that she has more room to park her car.
