    Well, Maddog and I went over to my brothers place and we unloaded his Roadking from inside his motorcycle trailer. Been sitting there sense I went through the carb last summer. Was not on a battery tender and to our surprise it started. Rode it home and gonna clean it up and it's going up for sale. I'll get some pictures later on.
    The bike just ran great to.

    Well I don't know if he's lucky to have me as a brother, I guess I just like helping out.
    I installed a set of Wild 1 chubby bars on it, wow what a difference that made in comfort. They came off the wife's trike when she got it, we're to wide for her.

    Pulled the head light and cleaned the inside glass, had a milky look to it. Really dirty inside. Looks good now.

    it's well worth the $100 to swap to the newer clear with HD logo , it seemed i had to clear it about once a month down here on gulf(rust) coast , it should help in selling as well better light at night for just a $100 updated stuff is always a good selling point :cool:
