I wasn't ready for a bagger and wanted something a bit raw like the XLCH I had as a young rider. Great bike for short zips...

Well when that day finally got here, there was no doubt, heading to the dealer, walked straight to the bike I had my eye on, and the rest is history. For me its the nostalgic look of the Heritage...I was hooked.
I had my eye on it for some time.. Just like so many, it just fit..

For daily riding nothing beats a bagger .. Only wish the RG rode as good as the TG's did ..

When I wanna feel "nostalgic" I fire up the '52 FL ..

Wanna feel likea teenager again , it's the '71 FXE ..

Wanna feel like billy bada@@ , it's the '77 FL stroker

For now, it's my RKC.. besides the stuff it already has, the plan's include.. chrome fork kit, chrome control covers and switches, stainless cables, gear driven cams, and the SE 95 inch kit.

With that said.. in the next 2 or 3 years.. there will be a pearl black ultra with the 110 motor..

I also would love to see a black XR1200 in the garage but.. that gets into that champagne taste vs a beer budget thing...

Cheers

After touring on 700cc jap bikes, I knew I wanted a bagger.
