Default What to do next....

OK, I have been going thru a divorce for over 3 years now, and it don't look like I can see an end to it anytime soon! I have been savin to buy an used Ultra or Street Glide, but can't buy either until the divorce is finalized.

So I think it is time to do something with my Softail! Just not sure which way to go yet??? Thinkin maybe stretched bags and a fat rear fender??? Maybe some new wheels too, 23 or 26 incher ??? I do have a big bore kit and heads ready to install to, but they need to be diamond cut first.

No matter what direction I go, I am going to be sellin off some of my goodies like the tour pak, a couple stock seats and passenger pillions, and even my Heritage Springer seat with chrome studs that I made up.

So tell me how to spend some of this cash burnin holes in my pockets!

Thanks!

Jimmy

JMHO opinion but your bike looks great as it is, stick that in a bank account until the dust settles.

yeah your sig bike looks awesome as it is, but out of curiousity, what passenger pillions do you have? and would they fit a FLSTFB?

I don't know about illinois..but here in Jersey, no matter what the reason for the divorce is, the woman gets 51% of everything. The law is biased and was written in 1954, and apparently it's not important enough to update, so people like my dad keep getting hosed by damn women. sorry to hear you've been going through it for this long.

LOL....my girlfriend dont think that is such a good idea, unless I want to be solo for good

I do have the Heritage Springer pillion and wrap around backrest like on my seat. I also have the Heritage bags, Tour Pak, and a fairing with tunes....and of course a remote for the radio for the gf to be able to listen to what she wants...

I am pretty safe with my cash....judge says I can not purchase any vehicles or houses....I asked about parts to "FIX" my bike, boat, or truck, and she said that I can do that. She is already gettin her share of my weekly pay check and child support, so the cash I have is mine to spend now....but its not like I have all that much...lol
