I had the bike for nearly 30 years.
Sold it today to a guy I hope will take care of it.
I just didn't ride it anymore since I got the M-2

Silas_,
Do I detect a case of sellers remorse?
It's got to be a little sad, almost like selling one of your kids, even worse than selling your dog, they don't stay around that long.
But look at it this way, it's gone on to a better place. It won't be sitting there watching every day when you come out and crank up that M2, and then seeing that grin on your face when you come back, and you won't have to feel guilty any more for ignoring it that way.
Rotzaruck!!

My first Harley was a 73 Sportster. First one with a front disc brake, and the not so good banana brake caliper, lol.

It had the optional slightly higher bars and the banana seat. Lots of bananas eh?

I always thought the 73 Sporty, or at least the one I had, looked like it came out of 'Hells Angels on Wheels'.
