    Can't blow it up for my bad eyes, looks pretty sharp, a skull and two paintbrushes? What is he, with Pirate Paints? Either way, looks pretty neat. Going with a custom seat, or have you decided yet?

    Ahhhh, now it makes sense. I was worried those were bones, was thinking maybe the Sportster should stay in the shed this year! Hate to have to get the wife to drive me around this summer, but she can see better than me. Always sees my mistakes, anyway...

    That's terrible. Hope it all melts soon. Our temps have been nice here, but it has been raining a lot. Oh well, it's April.
