Nice. I had a 93 Ultra for several years. Ended up selling it to a guy in Hawaii.

Nice ride sir.
Did you notice much difference in performance with the stage 1 and aftermarket pipes? ~Cliff

Thanks guys for all the nice compliments. Cliff, there seemed to be much better performance with the stage 1 and the pipes,but the thing that helped the most was a chip that allowed me to turn quite a few more RPMs without floating the valves, or reaching the factory RPM cutout. This is my favorite Harley going back to 1956. Im going to keep this one

Wow, great looking softail DewPat...I have a 08' FXSTC that the wife and I enjoy riding as often as we can and traveling with it as our toad. Looks like you run a Screamin Eagle Aircleaner (or something similar) on it. Any probems with leg clearance on that right side? Once again, great looking ride.

Nice ride, DewPat. I was a biker for 42 years, but was never big enough to ride a Harley.

Hello Dennis Litten. No the air cleaner is not a problem. I dont even know its there, but I like the looks of it and Im sure it forces air to the fuel system. Ordered a new Rockwood 8288WS from the dealer at Lakeview, Oh, and we are just sitting here at home waiting for it to arrive. I dont know what I will do with the bike as I cannot take it with me. Thanks for all the comments---

Your missing Biketoberfest down here in Daytona !!
The weather is perfect.....low 80's during the day..........high 50's at night.....dark blue skies.......lots of bikinis......well, so i've heard, my wife won't let me look !!
I (we) ride a 2003 RoadKing.............just put a sound system on and it sounds great !!! Nothing like cruising down a country road with some nice tunes !

Hey Steeljag. Im sorry to be missing all the fun. I think Its alright to look if you wear sunglasses. My wifes sister lives forty miles west of Daytona. We are hanging here waiting for our 5th wheel to come in so we can join in the fun. Here is a photo of my favorite ride, a 62 Sportster. May have had something to do with my age Ha!

40 miles West of Daytona......Deland is about 25 miles West.......so that would put her west of the St.Johns river and in Lake County???

Hello Steeljag. Wifes sister lives in Umatilla on Rt #19. We go down most every year , and take the bike. We had a Class C motorhome, and would pull the bike to Florida in the winter. Used to stay at Key Largo , and ride to Key West a few times each stay. Im a 1940 model, and bought the Sportster new in 62 for 1200.00 Spent a lot of money on the engine, and won a lot of two dollar trophys at Detroit Dragway. Live and learn. Also, Im a long suffering Detroit Lion fan. Enjoy the sunshine---Dewey
