Yeah, 'er 'uh hd2003-se2005,
OK man, here we go again. I appreciate your concern about my decisions on how I spend my money, but you needn't fret about it. Shrader doesn't have a clue as to how much capital I've invested in my Bagger. However, I can assure you, if I had purchased it from his place of employment, and had them do all the modifications, it would far exceed his estimate of my financial exposure in this particular unit! As for the Kelley Blue Book, that is only a guide for Lending Institutions and Insurance Adjusters. A Motorsickle, or anything you sell for that matter, is worth exactly what you get out of it. Case in point: When my new '02 FLHTCUI came in on October 20, 2001, I sold my 1989 FLHTCU, for $20,000.00. That's what I wanted. That's what I got. If I ever decide to sell my '02 FLHTCUI, I'll get what I want, or I simply will not sell it! Then, there is always the question of the pleasure I get from the wind in my face. What's that worth? That part of Life is worth untold value to me. Bragging is such an ugly word, hd2003. I apologize if my "Ribbing Remarks" aimed directly at SHRADER and OTIS, whom I consider my True Friends, offended anyone on this FANTASTIC SITE! I would not want you to confuse my confidence with arrogance! No one on this GREAT SITE would take me serious, until I produced the "Hallowed" Dyno-Sheet. Remember, The Great Vince Lombardi said, "If you can do it, it ain't braggin'!" The statement you made about spending less on my next Motorsickle has me curious. I must be doing something different than you Hot-Rodders in North Caroliner. The next one always cost me more than the last one. I appreciate your advice of "Just Chill", but it is an attribute that has always seemed to be absent in my life. My Ol' Pappy told me if I didn't make dust, I'd eat dust! Having let what was on my mind come through my fingers, I do recognize us both as A+ personalities, and in kind, hope you do not take offense to any of the above. Friends are hard to come by, and I want all of them I can get! See you in "The Valley!" Later--HUBBARD
