Default new guy in town!

Hey guys, I just thought I'd stop by to say hi. Just got a 77flh. Needs quite a bit of work, but she'll get there. At least be ready for next season.

Default RE: new guy in town!

Will get photos asap. Its kinda a mess right now (no tins and the wiring is in dire help). But you can get the idea. Working on the tin for some fresh paint. Last time was almost 15 yrs ago when I helped my dad with it. Thuth be told it was his bike untill he passed in Sept. It sat for about 3 1/2 years befor I finally got the ok to bring her back to life. A little too late for him to see but with some hard work and long nights just in time to ride in the funeral. Now its time to do it right. I'll stop rambling now it just feels good to talk about it now and then. Hope you guys are up to the task as ill be asking a lot of questions. Great board with lots of knowledge here, the old man would have my a$$ if I just sent to the shop to be done.
