Default New Guy in NC
Kids are grown and out of the house, so after 35 years, I bought my 75 FLH. Told the wife that I wanted a project bike, and brother, this one didn't disappoint. Been working on it on and off for around a year and have thoroughly enjoyed it, despite having a few throw the wrench/part into the next county. Very close to riding it daily, just a few ****ling transmission things to work out. Ridden it a few times. Forgot how much I enjoyed riding a shovelhead. I live a little north of Raleigh, so if you see a primered Electra Glide tooling around, say hello.
