You've shown me yours so it's about time I showed you mine.
This is my first Harley ever. As it started my buddy and I stopped to look at a 1992 EG Ultra classic a guy had for sale. I called the wife asking for $5000 expecting a "hell no." Instead she admitted that she thought it'd be fun. Her mistake. The bank wouldn't loan me the $5k (even though the lady offered a $15k credit card on the spot) so I talked to the dealer who got me financed for the full amount, around $10, for this king.
It's the anniversary 100th so I plan on leaving the paint. The previous owner looks to have gone thru the catalog and bought every matching bolt on bit he could find; grips, joker derby cover, shifter and brake pedals, fender tips, etc. it appears to have a better breather in it and single sided shotgun type pipes. It had about 36k miles and I've added about 2k since June.
I'd like to leave it pretty much as is since I really like the 100th scheme. I would like to drop the rear an inch or so as well as add the batwing from Reckless. Those are both incidentals though and I ride her every chance I get. I never though I'd like a bagger, always been a Fatboy fan, but I'll never look back.
As to the wife who thought it'd be fun; she got a $1300 Buell Blast that has been replaced out of the riders' class, taken the class herself, gotten her endorsement, and is looking at Sportsters for herself. She likes the blacked out Iron and the Fourty-eight.
