Hey Greg. I'd bet you'll like a fugly, Harley got that fairing right, one of the better ones I've been behind. But keep the blue one, you'll like it better for some rides, just as I like my 1200. I was surprised at how well a fugly handles, but it's still just slightly less nimble than our lighter weight bikes. I know if you and I rode together, fugly and sportster, I still wouldn't be able to keep up with you. Wait, fuglies have floorboards - I might have a chance! Small chance...

I'm keeping the Softail.
And I don't hold a candle to Bob when it comes to riding prowess.

He led the pack in Arkansas, 2019, he could disappear quick when he wanted to.

Halito Doc, Woods, Toaks, Lurks. and any other 'ers up now. Local news has a segment with reporter riding around with Sheriff looking for people who don't stop for school buses. Nice to see this type of reminder out every year at the start of school. But the people who really need this are not one to watch the news. I see this every day.... people running red lights. I'm out early enough not to see too many buses on my way to work, but I do stop for each and every one!
Y'all be careful out there today. Watch for the children. Have a great day. And look forward to your weekend. Lurker out....
