HI everyone, I'm about to buy an AMF FXE or lowrider soon, I've sold a class III weapon and waiting for the deal to close. I've owned a
'74 and '80 fxe and three xlch's (but don't hold those against me). I know everybody looks down their nose at AMF, but I broke my teeth on them and I LIKE 'EM. I did a lot of riding in the late '70's through the late '80's and I miss it. I can't wait to go on some runs with some local clubs in the DFW area.
