Thanks love. And after all these years of harley ownership not a pair of leather chaps, or nipple clamps. Perhaps I should contact Trinny and Suzannah!

Aparently some bloke from Canada phoned all round the world for a bike, and wound up buying one from our local dealer because it was so much cheaper. Goods excuse for a wee visit, eh Shep

Cant down load photos
I have a rather cheeky 53 plate road king, that has only rolled over 15,000 miles since it left the factory, owned by by a wanna be cop before me so immaculate, sounds like a burglar kicking a door in but its the only bike she'll get on after being scared on my 595 trumpet.
Hoora for diversity.
Who ever loaded that bike for bear cant have ever needed to stop quickly on a harley.

I had one of the first year 2001/2002 one's.
Really great 'bike.....Fast, good brakes, handled OK for a cruiser and very well made.....
Downsides ?....Small fuel tank. Also, the key was down by my right leg. I was always dropping the key down the back of the ( hot ) exhaust.....everybody does it......
Sort of wish I still had it....
Oh dear what have I done?
Took a Night Rod Special out for a test ride this morning and told the guy I wouldn't be long, just planning to do a short route to test ride the bike.
5 minutes out and wasn't at all sure, 10 minutes out and the bike really started to grow on me.
Ended up doing the test route four times!
Really impressed with the gears, the engine and the brakes etc. Just takes more effort to drop it into corners with that huge rear tyre.
Oh and a sixth gear would be nice.
Anyway, totally smitten and so take delivery next week.
Now - how to tell the wife?

It is easier to seek forgiveness than to obtain permission

I love the look of the night rod special, its the only HD I've seen that has made me think of changing my FXDX. For that reason I have avoided a test run

Looks a lot better in the flesh TBH
And it now has some nice smokey chrome tank decals !!
A 17 year love affair ended when I bought a BMW For a winter bike in 2002...Loved the BM So much that I never rode the HD's .
They sat in the Garage another year before they were sold ..sad to see them go .but Since I bought the BM The HD Ride no longer does it for me ..But Still Love to look at them
