Where are you talking about with the orange and black?
My first HD was a used 82 FXWG (Wide Glide) It was made at the end of the AMF (A Mother Fucker) reign of terror. They jumped the shark when they were making golf carts and bowling balls...
It took a while to make it into a reliable scooter and not leave a puddle of fucking oil everywhere I parked.
I back in those days, you needed to be a good wrench. (Gunner ain't got shit on me!
)
I rode it cross country multiple times to Sturgis, Daytona and smaller rallies. I put nearly 100K mile on it before I sold it to get my 96 FXSTS Springer Softail. (That will go to my son when I check out)
My first ride on a chopper was a heavily chopped 65 Trumpet that one of my dad's buddy's rode. That ride gave me the biking bug that I still have. I love Limey bikes even though I've never owned one. I still check out Ebay looking for a swinging deal on a Triumph, Norton or BSA. They are getting rare and out of my price range for a rebuild project.
