    Yep. If I know I'm gonna have more than a hundred mile day, I'll take the '92. I ain't a kid no more.

      I hear that. The ideals of youth give way to the comforts of age. Rigid arse end is one of the sweetest looking designs, but the old cheeks don't like the abuse.

      Very clean scoot! Hats off.

        When possible I stay below 50mph. and I run the back tire at about 18lbs. But ya' can't fight time. Every year my belly gets bigger and my ass gets smaller.

          That's just life's cruel joke on all of us.

            Needed tank badges. I bought the ones correct for the year, gold plated em' and went to put them on....Shoulda measured the tank first. Anyhow, these are from my birth year, so I thought they'd be cool. Also plated the headlight ring & top tree pike bolts.

              Very nice job and you have hidden the rear brake very well also.

                Good one. Not quite the red I was shootn' for, but Harley never made a red pedal and there ain't an aftermarket neither. I bought an OEM white Harley pedal and first tried to dye it with RIT dye. Boiled it up, threw it in for about fifteen minutes and when I pulled it out, I sh*t you not I swear it was whiter than when I put it in. So I got a can of upholstery paint and it stuck pretty good.

                    Kinda puts me in the mind of my brother-in-law's 1967 custom sportster:

                    1981 GS750L (sold)
                    1981 GS750L (current)
                    1978 Yamaha RD400 (RD = Race Development)
                    1981 Honda CT70 (86+ MPG at WOT most of the time)
                    1983 GS1100GL (needs work: update, gone to a new home)
                    1956 Simplex (with a TS250 motor)
                    1985 GS1150E (Hammer Time!!)
                    1998 1200 Bandit (Rattler)
                    1980 GS1100L (Janice)
                    Do I continue?
