Howdy and welcome to Harley Country. By the sound of your name, are you a John Wayne fan? That was the name that he went by in his last movie, The Shootist.

Very good. John Wayne was John Bernard Books in The Shootist. One of my favorite movies.

"I won't be wronged,
I won't be insulted,
and I won't be laid a hand on.

I don't do these things to other people,
and I require the same from them."

John Wayne as JB Books
The Shootist

Sweet ride! Were the rear bag guards a pain to install?
