Default My nightster story

I was looking to buy an Iron locally but they didn't want to deal at all. So I began calling around looking for a Black Denim Iron. I guess since I wasn't spending 20 grand on a bagger and was only buying a sporty, all the salesman didn't want to help me out. That is until I called Cowboy Harley in Beaumont Texas. The salesman told me he did not have any irons in stock, but he does have a Nightster he could sell me at the same price as the iron. I was surprised and when I arrived, there was no B.S. I walked out the door with the sales price of 7900 bucks on the bike. I was really pleased with the sales team and highly recommend Cowboy Harley. They also sent me a check in the mail about two months later because I over paid on my taxes. (Was really shocked)

I have done a couple of mods since getting the bike. They are kinda generic but I am pleased because I did them all myself. They are as follows:

Arlen Ness Stage one air breather
27 inch drags
V&H Black Outs 2 into 1
Relocated speedo, coil, and ignition switch
Flipped headlight with "home made bracket"
Home made tank lift

I have many more plans for the bike but just taking my time with it because I ride it; she is not a trailer queen.

Thanks for reading my story and hope to continue the story as it
progresses.....
