Default New Shovelhead

Hey all! I recently bought this '77 FLH. I love it! It runs great and has that "old school" look and sound. I haven't had anyone come up asking me "is that a Harley?", They seem to know right off the bat! Unlike my coworkers twincam, people are all the time asking him, "is that a Harley?"

Well, anyway, I'm looking forward to shootin' the bull here on HDforums.com, Birddog
