my 67 FL

In the month and half since I bought this bike I've ridden it to San Diego then back to Seattle. In total logging over 4000 miles on it. I think I've got a good idea what I like and dislike about it by now.
Dislikes..
the throttle grip that keeps slipping off but can never remember to glue the thing before I ride it again.
The wiring, a mess.. redid that.
Generators.. never mind.
Handlebars.. I can never get comfortable on them except when they're turned real low and I'm just on the freeway.
The Seat.. - too ridiculously wide
The carb ..was a keihin -changed it to an S&S
Forward pegs.. except when I'm on the freeway for long periods.
The aftermarket primary cover.. The stock ones look so good why did people take them off?
rear suspension.. takes the fun out of it and you have no road feel

Gawddamn Starters!
3.5 gallon tanks
71 Superglide front ends
King and Queen Seat.. its too wide but feels pretty comfy just the same.. like sitting on a recliner which is nice on the freeway
Rear Suspension.. at least when your not paying attention on the freeway and you hit a big pothole, the suspension soaks it up and you don't need a kidney transplant.
Generators that work.. nevermind
Invaders.. I just do, who cares
room for a passenger
it's a 67
I'm only the 4th owner
Hurst mini dual discs .. they don't work any better than a drum but I like them .. who cares
the 3rd owner still calls me and asks me how its going
I rode over 4000 miles on it.. and I've only had it a month and a half and it's just April

Now I'm going to redo it and get rid of some of those likes..why? Because I'm an idiot.

1967

My 69 is now going to a good home. Got the insurance money from my recent accident then drove for a day to buy this 67FL complete with some mid 70's customizing .. 71 superglide fork, Dual Hurst Mini disc front brake, Invaders.. Motor is low miles and still has stock bore on the cylinders. The owner has had it for 29 yrs and was good friends with the second owner who customised it from stock with most of what is on it now.
Stayed up most of the night talking and looking at old photos with him and his wife; felt like old friends and a little like I was adopting a child. I stayed at their house but couldn't fall asleep. Drove all day back again cracked out. Good times! In the end I ended up with the 67 shovelhead that I wanted all along. I couldn't bare to tell the owner that I was going to totally change the bike and put the motor in a completely different frame. I wont sell the original swingarm frame though.. one day maybe I'll put the motor back in it.

got bunch of extra parts with the bike.. dual throat weber that was on the bike in the 70's and 80's
