    Very true but I don't mind that at all. If I can get it at that price I am more than happy to fix it and make it running good.
    I keep my 2 feet on the ground, and my head in the twilight zone.

    Bobber? Jebus dude! That ruins them. At least stretch kits keep the front wheel planted on the ground.
    Pull out the back wheel by 10 inches to a foot. Stretch back the rear fender and add body panels in the gaps. Smooth.

    Sorry Charles, I'm siding with George on this one.

    CB450 Honda has a spot in my heart, I had three of 'em. But not like this...

    This is my first motorcycle with a gas gauge other than the odometer.

    Your Fat Boy doesn't have one? The later models do - in the left "cap" - and I'm sure you can retrofit it.

    Y'all are calling those bobbers? I guess anything can be a bobber these days. The one in George's post is bobber-ish. The one in Dave's post is not a bobber.

    It's no biggie. I just reset the trip odometer every fill up and when I get to about 130 I know I'm getting close.
