Default My first wideglide

Hey everyone just wanted to say hello from Hershey Pennsylvania. I just got my first new to me 2005 wideglide FXDWGI . It was a good friend of mines bike who passed away in 2010 . I saved it from sitting in a family members basement and now I'm going to bring her back to its past beauty and even a little better so my old buddy will be smiling big from up in the heavens . The good thing about this bike is that it's just needs a new seat and some serious detailing . It's got a big bore kit and some nasty cams already so I'm off to a good start I suppose .
