Howdy!
My name is Mike, started motorcycle riding with 14 (MotoCross) had my fast Rizeburners in the '80s,
quit motorcycling with 27. Saw those potatoe potatoe bikes on of my a Trips to the US. Bought a Rigid frame with a Pan on that Trip and brought that Rolling Chasis (yeah, two wheels, a frame and a motor...) built ´53 into my garage. That was 1990. Riding Harleys off that day. lived for a while in Grapevine, TX brought my in Germany licensed Harley to the Metroplex. Changed the Ladies more often than my bikes. Bought a FLSTFAE brandnew in 2005. Thought that this will be my last bike. Saw a FLHTCUSE5 in riptide blue/Titanium dust this summer for sale, fell in love. Is a 1HD.... Harley, ran before in KY. Really liked that motor!! Goin´fast over here.... after 2500 mls suddenly a wining sound... yeah you are right! Lifter!! Fixed it, spend money on a Road Zeppelin and have now a perfect Touring bike beside the FatBoy. No... not me on the pic! My Lady (ies)! ;-)
In the wind! - mike
