Welcome from Indiana, USA

I have owned an FX Shovel, and FXR Evo and 2 Glide Twin Cams. The rubber mount 5 speed Evo FXR was in my opinion the best all around bike. If Clevblock rubbers in swingarm and front motor mount are in good shape and alignment of lower and upper heim joints are done by the book, this frame provides an excellent touring and bar hopping setup.
