Its a 96 883, and also lowered..which is good because I'm a bit challenged in the vertical department.

Already looking at big bore kits, and and airbrush setup because the paint scheme is god-awful. You believe this was a guy's bike? Runs like a raped ape only 10,000 miles. Of course most of the bolts on it are loose..

That's AWESOME!! I'll 100% agree that being heard while riding a bike is good in a general sense, most of the Harley's I pass are painful for me to hear, and I'm wearing a helmet and my hearing sucks.

That there is just plain funny though! Thanks!

Poor ol' Big Red...

Nice bike though, I'm sure you'll find a way to custom the paint on it to your liking!

Lisa nice ride, here's what you do, put the bike on the back of the truck and take it for a ride, until she get's use to it,it's like putting a new rider on your own horse, ride it around a little. LOL.

Nice ride Lisa.

Wish I hadn't sold this 100th anniversary edition. But I only miss it when I see other bikes, like every day.
1550cc in a small frame. It too ran like a "raped ape".

Although a Harley is not my personal preference congratulations none the less Lisa. Please be safe, wear a helmet, and assume the drivers around you are going to make the stupidest move possible because they will.
