10th CAB actually. (I'm sure the wings gave it away) I know what you mean about the '40 below cert.' I've got mine as well. It gets stupid cold up there.

most of the new generation doesn't have any idea of what you actually have right there, Jay.
Probably the best combination of old and new that the MoCo has ever produced. IMHO.....

Quite stunning - agree entirely. We never even got offered the darned things over here! In fact it is only a few months ago I even knew they had been built. Now S&S makes a nice little 145" that might just be squeezed in there.....

Hey Dale, If you wanna see Jay's FXR all you have to do is show up at the Fl. Crew Rally in Ocala the second week of November. Would sure like to see you and the little lady there.

Thanks scot .. Not sure how let this model slip away for a lot of years but until about 2000, A Sportster was the only ride for me .. Trying to make up for the years could have been riding one of these Jewels ...
