Nice bike. I like yellow. Lets ride...... after the snow melts......
A Shist! TATE! Looks good man. Some elbow grease and polish... Woo-Hoooo!
I'm going to take a snap shot of my 2003 XL1200C tomorrow. I just got my new seat on it. The low profile seat breifly named, "The Striper." I also just popped on my naked lady levers from that company I'm sure to mis-spell-badly...
Kerorkorkian.. LOL Kerry-rocken. Ha ha ha.
My Sporty custom has a black wrinkle painted engine with the fins of the jugs bare aluminum. Chrome everywhere, a mark of a custom in addition to what Tate wrote about his.
I had a yellow sporty iron head with drag pipes and an s&s carb. that sporty would haul butt. Now im on a wide glide. wish i had both. i bought another sporty a 73 iron head.Put a 1200 kit on it and smoke some big twins.lol

Hey Joe! When ya sell her? Getcha price? Hope so, it was a good looking ride.
yellow paint really makes it stick out from the other harleys.
Not to bad Joe, not to bad. You posted your wifes bike @ AbodyJoes.com right?
Thanson,
You can have the jugs powdercoated or painted then use a belt sander to remove the paint/powdercoat on the fin edges. It looks awesome when done right.
You might want to ask our resident powder coating expert, Leann about it. The paint or powder will not effect cooling, so if you like the look, go for it.
You already have your motorcycle endorsement on your license right? You might want to look into taking a MSF course too. Some insurance companies may give you a discount for succesful completion of the course. http://www.msf-usa.org/
Is it just the camera or is the rear tire bald? Get new tires before you anything else.
well, thats the look im goin for, ill have to consult the powedercoater.
Ive had a motorcycle license since i was old enough to have one (two years now)
first bike was known as the 1980 Wasaki-Davidson (kawasaki) kz 550, or nicknamed the Screamin' Cow8)
earlier post up i said first thing i did was clean it and replace tires, I dont ride two wheelers with bad tires, its not good for my health lol, i cant believe the old owner even trusted those tires
