Default Bagger only!

No more double identity for me........I have sold my Softail(my heart is broken!) and from now on I am a dedicated member of the "Bagger" community!

Hey Bob, that almost breaks my heart, how could you part with that bike? How could you part with those rims? Is it too late to call off the deal?

Wow - I can see how that would be a tough deal.

I know you had to contemplate keeping them both.

Say it isn't so!
What a gorgeous bike.
Oh well.. fun on two wheels is fun on two wheels and it's pretty much a totally different story going on long trips on that tour bike I guess.
I just want all the pictures to that softail for ideas when I get to work on my fatboy.. That bike IS gorgeous. I've got a thing about blue bikes. Appears that you do too. [sm=morning.gif]

Who ever got you softail is a happy camper. But you want regret have the bagger for one minute. So tell me did you have a moment with you bike before you sold it to the guy. I know you told him to take care of your first love.

It was very tough, but it is something I to do because it was being neglected after I bought the EG. My original plan was to keep both and use the EG for long rides and the Softail for just cruising.....even though I have taken that bike on some very long rides and had no complaints whatsoever, it just didn't work out that way. I decided I would much rather be on the EG! The comfort of a bagger is just unbeatable!! There should be a 1-800 number to call before you sell your bike so someone can try and talk you out of it!!!!!

I agree... I traded my '03 Heritage (nicely done w/ chrome, studs and leather) for a '05 Ultra. My heart still skips a beat when a good looking Softail goes by, but I keep telling myself "I'm more comfortable, I can ride longer, etc...." Maybe I'll soon believe it....

Sorry about your loss but you already know what a bagger is all about. I think the number is 1-800-OH-S%^T! Maybe somebody can verify that.
