Default Hello

Coey in Cincinnati.

1984 FLHTC Electra Glide Classic - First year Evo, Ongoing headache. First of all, it needs a new fairing, or to have the fiberglass fixed (It won vs. the deer, but it took its licks). Also the rear sprocket bolts keep working lose on me and bending. Fun problem amplified because the Access bolt is all but worn smooth. Also need to get the tour pak lights working.

2008 FXSTB Night Train - Newly received, headaches surely to come. Mild customization planned, starting with wheels (Which is why I signed up here in the first place). Looking for a crossbones rear wheel, or to make a dyna black spoked wheel fit. Later mods will include fenders.

Father's Rides that I will be assisting with
1973(?) Sportster - Needs total engine and transmission overhaul, plan to convert to hard tail.

1963 ServiCar - First year electric starter. Only 400 of the starter gears made. Impossible to find. Needs to be converted to newer starter. Will be a project in the near future.

I also have a 1988 Porsche 944 Project (headache). But I guess that has too many wheels for this forum.
