Talked to a friend this past weekend who has 160,000 + on a 1992 FXR shovel head.
Happy trails and safe riding!

Typo? must be an '82FXR
I had 125,000 on my '84 FXRS (first year evo) when I sold it,wish I'd of kept it.

Thanks Bob. I try. It's an old picture but she looks pretty much the same except for some chrome. Fortunatly, for me, I have a 150 mile commute so the miles add up. I always look forward to the ride in and back. It just makes my whole day.

Here she is on Valentines day. Kind of a dark pic. It was 45 degrees and raining.
