Default 1977 ironhead
Just bought my first sportster! A good running 77 ironhead.
I'm thinking of converting to a bobber over time. I'm leaning toward making it a ridged. I just like the look.
I'm am now a bonafide 2 Harley owner!

Congratulations on your '77 Ironhead! Sounds like you and I are going in opposite directions. I have a 1977 XLCH that I am looking to restore back to stock condition! To each his own own, good luck and have fun!
