Just curious

Just curious--I see many of youcharged up to buy a new bike and then complaining about poor performance-overheating-ect. After 4 years I traded my Indian Spirit ( never had a problem just high miles )for a 2005 Road King with 2200 miles on it and completely stock. This bike runs like a top and with a few modifications will be a better bike than all 2006 up. Why not look for a clean 2004 or 05 and let the motor company keep all the epa controlled garbage they are building.

Sorry - but if you listen closely to most complainin' the loudest, they'd complain if a millionaire nympho wanted ta marry 'em.

RE: Just curious

Trade in an FLH for an FLH that's essentially the same bike? For a single-runner EFI? An even LARGER gas tank? ABS Brakes I need a HD scanner to bleed? For red paint with slightly larger metalflakes? [:-]

Will I get free T-shirts too?

You left something out: Millionaire nympho that owned a liquor distributorship and the largest gun shop this side of the Pecos...!

RE: Just curious

If I had an '05 I mightbe singing the same tune,whatever you're on that's natural.

Positives and negatives either way you go,no complaints at all about the '08 I'm riding.
