Feel your pain, don't need another bike but every time I see a Shovel FLH or FLHT in the $3500 range I spend the next 1 hour talking myself out of it saying "you don't need another bike"

You hit the price mark dead nuts...... I spent the next 4 hours in the truck to go get it. Should have sold it on the way home to guy in gas station for the extra 500 he wanted to give me. Lol
daul plug heads probably pushed me to keep it........ but they sell easy if I need to get it out of the way . 2 hours it was running...not great! But farting away.
