You're kidding me with just one picture right? I know this is a trailer site, but let's see this bad boy up close!

Looks really nice, good work! Makes me feel kinda sad to be selling my fxdx, can't fit a single car seat on it let alone two. Gonna try and find a nice old convertible instead.

I've had two HDs both dynas. First one was super glide and the second one wide glide. IMO, the wide glide is the best looking HD ever. Did a 9 hour iron butt ride on the super glide...9 hours there and 9 back...in the desert.

I regret selling the wide glide.

I know I'm going to miss it, took me almost a year to decide to actually sell it. Maybe once I retire and the kids are busy with their own things I'll go back to bikes, but for at least the next ten years I'll have to keep it on four wheels. I am thinking of getting an enduro if I can find one for a really good price, gotta check with the CFO for the green light on that one.

I've had two enduro bikes, both KTMs. I started with a 400exc and then got a 525exc. To be honest, the 525 was overkill. They were both street legal too.

Nice, but I'd rather have a restored Norton Commando. I worked for Norton as Development/Test Engineer in the mid-1960s and did about 35,000 miles testing on the prototype Commandos.

After we arrived in Seattle in 1968 to take a job with Boeing, I looked at all the little old ladies driving 45 mph on the freeway in their Oldsmobile 98s, peeering through the steering wheel and probably not seeing the end of the hood that clearly, and decided I didn't want DW to open the front door to a stern-faced State Trooper.

I've never owned a bike since and, though I miss riding, I'm getting past it at 73.
