Default introduction

Greetings from a new guy in the forum. Great place! Great people! I've been lurking and finally registered.

Here's my bike info: I ride a custom '87 fxrs. It is cherry!Built from the ground up. All black and chrome. Lepera seat, Werks shocks, J-brake forward controls, custom wheels, all new Harley sheet metal w/bobbed rear fender, new Harley gastank (moved speedo/tach to tank), newclutch, billet fender struts, cycle shack tapered pipes, S&S carb. Powered by an 113ci motor.Dynoed 125hp/125 lbs-ft. Incredible sound.

An fxr with this much torque and power is absolutely amazing.Big power in Harley's best handling bike. I love classic Harleys,it looks brand new and I spent less than what a new 883 would cost.

Hope to chat with you soon. Best Regards,

luker
