Sadly, I put my beloved FXR3 on Craig's List this morning. I bought this limited-edition beauty new, in 1999. It was the first of the factory customs (CVO's). Only were 900 made (fewer than 500 in metallic green). I retired a couple of years ago and the nature of my riding has changed from around-town cruises to long tours. I tried a couple of simple mods ... high-flow air cleaner, clip on windshield, luggage rack, and removable leather bags. But this old body fades quickly after a 500-mile day on the FXR. I love the reliable  Big Twin evo motor. And the bike was featured in several articles published in RIDER and RoadRunner. But the trusty, green-flamed FXR3 has to go to another good home.

Sadly, Yep, I bet it is hard to part with it, I'll never part with mine, even after I can't ride. I told my wife, of 35 years, that she'll have to deal with it after I'm dead and cold 

 I put my beloved FXR3 on Craig's List this morning. I bought this limited-edition beauty new, in 1999. It was the first of the factory customs (CVO's). NOPE, yours was not the first, the FXR2 was the first, then the FXR3 then in 2000 the last of them, the mighty FXR4   

Only were 900 made (fewer than 500 in metallic green). There's a sticky around here that has all the stats, the years each was made, how many and in which colors.

I retired a couple of years ago Good for you man, ENJOY IT !!!!

Have to agree X2 here....keep it for around town riding.

Also, research shows that that your scooter, production numbers show approx. 621 1999 FXR3 in Candy Emerald Green w/flames.  It's a great bike...brother, ya gotta keep her....

I'll be selling my 2000 FXR4 in Sreamin yellow very soon.  They are great bikes, but I do like the fairing and tunes.  The FXR doesn't get enjoyed enough.
