There was a time you could buy a Harley and they would go up in value . Not anymore they are struggling . Lots of better built bikes for less money . Not enough old guys dressed like pirates .

I like it . I would like to go out feeling good . Not angry , or regretting something I said or did . But that might be easier said than done .

Oh, thank you! I loved that bike, too!
When I was buying my first Harley, the dealerships that I went to in California didn’t have a lottery - they just demanded a big down payment and a year or more of your patience. I like the lottery idea though - especially if you win it! Harley stuff can be pretty darn valuable - so if you get any of it for free, that a bonus win!

Wow, small world @GramTorino, we both had 92 Fat Boys! I can see you had yours set up for saddlebags, too. And your sprocket (or sprocket cover) and lower belt guard were chromed and you had the chrome axle covers like mine. We just can’t leave them alone, can we?!

2003 sporty currently building into a rigid bobber. It’s got a little less than 150hp to the rear wheel.
I’ve had liter bikes and some ducatis etc before but I like old Harley’s as simple as possible with no electronic bs that I build from the ground up.
I try to get lost for at least a month every summer. Just jump on and see where I end up.

I miss my ducatis and being on two wheels in general. 
Such a fun time on the weekends doing mountain blasts, put down thousands of miles in the twisty stuff and commuting over the years but had terrible luck with bikes - much longer story.
I’ve owned (in order):
04 Yamaha FZ6
02 CBR 600 F4
05 Kawi 636
2001 Honda RC51 (this step converted me to v-twins)
07 Ducati Multistrada 1100 (I was converted to pasta at this point)
08 Ducati Hypermotard 1100

That was my favorite thing to do also, you find so much wild stuff.

Don’t have a picture, but a '72 Bonnie with a springer front at 42deg. Thank the Old Lady who I had to lay it down, in front of, for it’s demise.

I love the big BMWs! I’ve come close to pulling the trigger on one a few times. The most recent time I was distracted by a beautiful Ducati 996 which I subsequently couldn’t get an acceptable price on.
My next addition to the stable will likely be a GS or an Africa Twin. Either that or I’ll get a new dirt bike.
Riding is just as important for my mental health as the herb. Helps me clear my head and resolve challenges.
