Hi, I am newish to the site, posted once already. Enjoying the reading.
My question is does any one know the origin of my bike. It was imported into Australia about a year ago. The bike is an 85 FXWG yellow and believed to be from California. The pipes have been changed since imported. I hope the photo comes out as I am still navigating the site.
Hope some one out there can help would be great to know.
Bike has found a good home runs like a dream and I love it. Apart from the odd I wont kick over and sloppy gear change the bike is in great shape. over winter I will fix the little problems ready for spring.
Regards Brooksy100

You might consider calling HD customer service and giving them the VIN#. They should be able to tell you where it was sold from.
