My dream Harley is an FXRT with an S&S and Baker transmission. Never really got too excited over Harleys till I rode a new '84, the EVO motor and belt drive won me over. Helped that it was by far the best handling Harley I'd ridden up till then. Maybe still is.

But I wouldn't want one with an EVO engine or frame.

Somewhere in the summer of 1985....My 1981 Sportster that I had for a short time went in for a used bike warranty issue. It was going to be down for almost 2 weeks and the dealer (my local dealer still) gave me a used or demo (don't remember) FXRT to ride.
I loved that bike and the dealer wanted me to trade up for something like $3,100 if I recall. Way more money than I had in those days, so I had to give it back. I was King of the Road for about 10 days back then.

Evening gents!

Looks like a FXR2 with aftermarket FXRT looking stuff. Very nice.

Went to bike night again. This time to put Sis's bike out front with a For Sale sign on it. Lots of cool customs, choppers, and just plain weird Steam Punk stuff.

Ride home came across a bunch of emergency responders and a Ninja resting against a guard rail. Cheryl said she heard flight for life hovering nearby. I would assume for the rider. Hopefully he makes it. Always sobering to come across. Rural area with no curves. Deer maybe?

Evening Woodsnitzes. As Mick said, a hot one today. Gonna start a brisket tomorrow for Saturday activities and Sunday, headed up to DC for the week. The boy is out doing his thing for a few days which means Kristi and I can have a normal lifestyle for a few days, well, normal for us.

Good morning all. I know it is early but I am headed out to tee off at sunrise. When I get back I will ride before the rain sets in. Everyone ride safe.
