That is one nice bike it must have taken a lot of time effort and cash to create it.

I think I'll be spending more time on the Softail and Touring forums. As much $hit as I took for riding a Sporty those years, you'd think we would all band together and share our passions for our bikes and riding.
That's a shame. Somehow the Sportster forum section always seems to attract a few narrow minded "know it all" individuals. Don't give up the ship, there are a lot of good people here.
Don't worry. I'm hurt, but it's not the judgement of others that drives me! I appreciate all the positive comments, not the least of which was the nomination for BOTM in the first place. Although I'm not the world's biggest fan of the V-Rod, I'd hate to hear some of these folk go off on THEM.

Since the last build on the motor (I blew that one up in 2004) I had Buell Thunderbolt heads put on her. Do I need to look for the Buell forum?

Indeed it did, and it's STILL an ongoing process. Every time I do something to her it ends up costing more than I had anticipated. Kindof like going paying tuition for your kid and then finding out that you have to buy their books TOO!

Wait...you mean they have to have a physical and their shots updated as well???

What? A uniform?

When I was asking if it was a sporty I was talking about lolife's. It's a beautiful bike and so is yours.

lolife's bike is sharp! A nice nod to our forefather's concept of personalizing and customizing a scoot! My hat's off to lolife!!!

That's an awesome looking machine, but other than the motor is ita real sporty?
You're right. It's probably not a Sporty at all.

Thanks Lj, and thanks again to all who embrace the individuality that exemplifies an HD owner. Whether it was my Sporty, my Road King or my Heritage Springer, I NEVER rode stock. I don't want my bike to look just like someone else's.

I'm still here!!!!!
