Another FXR Guy
Where is everybody?
Oh, yeah, Sturgis is going on.
I was there in 89. None of my T-shirts fit any more. I had a burgundy and grey 85 FLH. That was livin!!
Sold that in '93. Doin / ridin this n that.
A couple of months ago I bought my friend's dark blue 85 FXRS Low Glide. 17,000 miles. Sat for 5 years. Been through it pretty good.
In a shop now for tires, and another set of eyeballs to look it over.
Keihin butterfly carb and drag pipes now. I bought an OEM exhaust that I think might fit coming (took a chance, gotta see it up close).
No rush, DMV is closed for new transactions in NY. I'm in Brooklyn, fogettabou!
Anyway, man stuff has changed since my first '85 Evo. Like my 50 pounds and glasses!!
Funny to be able to look up used parts on line and have them delivered.
I can't wait to get these last few issues straightened out and take it on the highway.
See you later,

My Mom was born in Brooklyn back in 1925 but raised mostly in NH and came to Oregon in the late 1940's..
Enjoy that FXRS Lowglide,I'm jealous having spent 10 years and 125,000 miles with an '84 FXRS Lowglide.
Man I miss that bike! Most fun bike I ever owned and I've had many.
I tell a lot of new comers to the forum to get: Factory Service manual and the Parts manual. Get a three ring binder and record all your maintenance, repairs, accessories, etc. This will be a great reminder of what was done when. And great material to pass along to the new owner should you sell and upgrade. Also know how large your fuel tank is, and record your fuel usage. I have an app called Simply Auto that I record all my fuel used. I use the odometer and use the fuel gage as reference only. I reset the odometer to zero on fill ups, and I know I can safely get 200 miles on a tank on around town riding.
Good Luck!!
