Nice job but, Is it just me or is that just kind'a wrong??? Resto mod in reverse??
thanks guys, appreciate the kind words.
and it's not a rest mod in reverse. the bike is the same from 1981, but wears late model tins and bags. also got a 97 road king trans. i didn't put a shovel motor into a newer bike. i turned a first generation touring bike into a late model road king
