Default Pulled the trigger in MN

After riding for over 45 years, I just got an 04 Heritage Softail Classic, the first bike my wife of 25 years will ride with me on. Go figure.. I thought it was just bikes in general. I told her if I only knew, I would have bought one of them years ago!

Spent Memorial Day weekend on odds and ends, getting it clean, changing baffles, plugs, fluids, shield, etc. and have to say I am pleasantly surprised at the ride. While it can't really corner for poop, I guess that is not really the point any more

Anyway.. here is a pic of it cleaned up..
