RE: I finally get it..
If you are interested in onlyappreciation and HD becoming a collector item, pray that they willbe legislatedto water cooling, and get away from the traditional V-Twin looks, sound, etcASAP, before they make any more. Actually, I think it's too late, too many HDs that all look and sound alike, and like muscle cars, has to be factory original to bring the big money.

What you have actually done is contribute to the stock holders earnings...........nothing more, just like the rest of us.
Your harley, to the stealer,has depreciated like nobody's business. Call them and ask them how much they will give you for it now that it's been titled.

I'm sitting here watching Barret-Jackson auto auction, seeing 1970 SS Chevelle ls7 going out the door for $90.000!
But who knew that gas prices and emission controls would make them skyrocket in price 37 years later???
Who knew that the auto manufacturers would attempt "retro" versions of contemperary models to attempt to emulate the MUSCLE IRON of days gone by??
Who knows what will happen 30 years from now???

RE: I finally get it..
Personally I would've kept the El Camino, and saved up some more for the Harley.....
I'm just waiting for my dad to pass down his baby to me, a white 1974 Corvette Stingray, only 80k miles onit. According to my mom, hopefully that'll be this year sometime. (He's not passing away or anything, but she's getting rid of all but one car, which will probably be their 4Runner).

I see you're from Houston. Who has the best tuners? Stubbs or Mancuso's or do you use someone else? Lake Charles has nothing so I'll have to make the drive to either Houston, Beaumont, or Alexandria.

As far as Warrantee stuff, I leave that to the dealer..
As far as Tuners in this area, I would suggest S&S Cycles, on 529... For the dollar, and experience... As far as Dealers go, Mancuso on 290 (Crossroads) or
the one on 610 at North Main...
