Gassing up the Glide
« on: December 03, 2013, 06:23:21 PM »
Haven't had the HD out of the garage for months. So today after charging the battery last night I left the sohc4's parked and took it for nice little ride. A few members here don't have very kind words for Harley and I can't speak for any others, buy mine has been one hell of a bike. Bought it in 1998 with about 11k on it and with 35K the one and only problem every was the stator going bad several years ago.

Love the smooth sound of the sohc4 CB750's but nothing quite sounds like the potato, potato thumping sound of the 80CI - 1340CC - EVO V-Twin 8)

Nice looking bike! Missing mine  :-X It had always been a great bike. Never had the first problem.

You know, a long time ago being crazy meant something. Nowadays everybody's crazy.

You've got to watch your back in the SSDB, this is where the clever guys get bored with bike talk and make poo jokes.
I like my women a little big. Natural. Now, they shave this and wax that. It's not right. I love natural women. Big women. This trend in women has to go. Bulomia, anorexia. That's just wrong. You know what will cure that? My special sticky buns. One lick of my sticky buns and your appetite will come right back. ~ RIP Mr. Borgnine  01/24/1917 - 07/08/2012  :'(
