Sorry that there are so few block heads and shovels on the forum. It's their choice, not ours. If they are riding shovels they probably don't have time to get on the computer (J/K). I don't know what the excuse is for the blockheads. If you think about it though, look how many Twin Cams you see on the road compared to blocks or shovels. Face it, as far as Harley is concerned you are riding a "Classic."

It's the place to go to get a lot of EVO tech and answers. This place is really good for looking at twinkies and hearing them bitch about fuel injection, 6 speed trannies that make noise, the excessive heat from the motor, blah, blah, blah.

HTT is a great site for technical answers. There's a lot of gearheads there that can answer just about any question you may have.

Hmmmm, My oldest g-daughter and I rode to a bike show at the "local" dealer (90 miles one way) this past summer . We didn't plan on entering or would have made it in time. We parked near the lot where it was held, and my '95 FXDWG got plenty of looks and a couple of "what is your number?" They voted by writing down bike number and put that number in ballot box. I was kinda proud that it drew so much attention......

I would love to find an old school bike to ride. Love the Ultra but would really love to have an older bike to go with the Ultra. Old kicker with a sidecar and I would be set.
