Default Bought an Evo

Hi, it's been a while... been building shovelheads... but picked up this beauty a couple of months back, 1998 wide glide with only 16k miles... rides beautifully.
Also building this 1989 Heritage... it was very sad with broken conrod. It has delkron cases, roller rocker, crane cam, ported and polished heads with oversize SS valves and 88 ci.

Beautiful WideGlide. IMHO the 95th colors are the best of the anniversary colors.

Love the Anniversary FXDWG.. Very nice..
I'm sure the Heritage will be a runner.. That Heini should help...

Usually most guys try to balance a beer on their bike not a bike on their beer lol... Good job..

Good to hear from you.. Spanners has been a regular..

if you drink enough Heineken, you can levitate more than just a bike.

it's good to be back, I don't do much social media stuff for the last few years....but the bikes have never left, they actually grew in numbers. I've also started making my own whiskey the traditional way with corn and wheat etc...no added sugar but that's another story.
My eldest son is wanting to ride the states in a few years time so we are saving up now, not sure if we send bikes over, rent or buy a couple of good evos and ride then send back to NZ....
