Default Bike getting better looking

I have had my King Classic for almost a year now. Last winter when I "put my bike away", I knew what my bike looked liked. I finally was able to get it out of hybernation and I swear my bike looks better now than it did when I put it away.

Is this a strang occurrence? Does every bike get better looking like mine? Or should I just come to the conclussion that my bike is the baddest mother out there.

That is normal. It is something that has been happening to Harley owners for decades. It is the exact moment that you realize it is a true love for your machine. I also love the look and knowing it's mine more & more each time I get to ride.
