Default Hello from Central IL
Hello from Central IL. Just joined a couple days ago.
Most people call me Festus or Butch... or some other names I won't mention.

I currently own a 2001 FLTRSEI and a 77 FLHS.
Used to own 76 XLCH, 99FXR2 and a 2004 FLHTPI.
Only been reading posts on this site for last two weeks. Looks like alot of good people and good info here.

Currently out of the country in Argentina working and the net is not so good so I will post some pictures of some of the bikes when I am back in the states in a couple weeks. Maybe back??

Anyhow Hello Everybody!!
Best Regards
Festus
