Funny you should mention that. If my Train was paid for I'd trade my EG in on one of the new Victory Cross Country's and have one of each brand of American motorcycle's. I don't count Indian as they are way out of my price range and in a niche market.

I don't follow your logic but to each their own.

 

I was just playing about the W sheild... It's cool...

Cross Country... Do you really like that?

Hey "B" give that lil peanut a squeeze from us... M

 

Not a picture but a comment. Was feeling good enough to go for a drive today. Went to 3 of the HD dealers here in Houston today, not a single one of them had a new Train on the floor, and only saw 2 used ones. Felt kinda good after noticing that. Did see several of those new fatboy lo's, look like half assed **** in my opinon. If they would have put some effort into it it couldve been cool but looks like something they just threw together the morning of announcing the new models, just so they could claim to have a black bike.

It's held up great on my stroker vette's long-tube headers. It really keeps the heat down too.

 

What happened with the fat spoke wheels?

Yep. Take a look at these vids. I'm sure they really aren't applicable to living on Oahu but out in the great expanse it does make sense.

Btw; this is my other favorite bike. A 69' Shovel I rode for 12 years. It saw a lot of changes over the years but ended being a fantastic bike. Being a simple working man over the years and always struggling I was lucky to have some good friends, brothers, who helped me get it to the condition you see here. I really wish I would have kept it now.

I think my 07 Train is going to be the bike I keep forever. I never get tired of looking at or riding it. Plus; thanks to the good folks here, I'm always getting new ideas to make it even better. Thanks everyone!!

 

dont have a pic of my dyno slip but I got my bike tuned and what not wednesday. She put down 76hp and 90lbs. Definitely a noticeable difference. WAY more low end torque and runs sooo much smoother. Before I would hit 6th gear and she would just fall off. Now I slam thru the gears and try to shift to the imaginary 7th gear. Now for some cams. lol
