Default pulled the trigger
After 3 years on a fxdwg and an *** load of miles I got a 2011 road glide custom for a price I couldn't refuse. I am on mobile but will post pictures when I get back to Texas.

Congrats, but remember you have to squeeze the trigger not pull it assuming you trying to hit the bullseye and shooting clay targets.

The 250 mile ride from southeast Missouri to Nashville was a dream compaired to distance riding on the dyna. Sucks on mobile I can't change my sig picture. I do need to swap speakers and windshield for longer rides though.
