Harley-Davidson Touring description
This is one of the ones you don't see offered a lot huh? It is my Father's that we was passing down to me, but we have both decided to step away from street riding, It has only a few miles over 20400 miles. 61 miles a year?! A truly rare bike in the original black color with the Harley pin striping. The seat has been upgraded to a Mustang seat due to original seat did not offer lumbar support. This seat does. The pipes have been changed to first year screaming eagle pipes. Which if my research is correct they are rare because it was the only year the pipes said "Harley Davidson" and not "Screaming Eagle". Also has a air charger kit, and original will be included as well. As shown the Gas cap is aftermarket but original will be included. As I noted in the condition section. These tires are rotted from sitting so many years. The bike has never been stored anywhere but in a garage.
It had sat for 6 years this last go, so we thought we may need to shoot a bit of start fluid in carb, but nope, it popped right off just like it always has. However I will admit that after sitting through a winter it will spew some oil. Always only on the first start after many months. It has always done that.
So it runs great. (sounds really deep and mean), good brakes, smooth riding. I say the bike is in pretty exceptional condition.
I am sure I am missing pertinent info that one may want so please ask if any questions? If you leave a number i would be ok calling you as well if you prefer?

Barbie and Ken get biker makeover
Mon, 15 Feb 2010IF YOU'VE a young daughter and you want to keep her away from motorcycles when she's older (or more likely the men that ride them) then look away now.Yes folks, Barbie and Ken are getting serious makeover to keep them up-to-date for 2010 - the new Harley-Davidson endorsed couple now come complete with biker gear, tattoos and even piercings (a Prince Albert, perhaps?). It makes you wonder what Mattel, the company behind the plastic duo, has next in the pipeline. Maybe they'll have a model of Birmingham airport, where Ken can kick the sh*t out of rival bike gang members?
Louisiana Bill Updates Maximum Handlebar Height Legislation
Thu, 17 May 2012Louisiana state lawmakers have approved a bill that would change the maximum height of motorcycle handlebars. Current state law restricts handlebar height to no more than 15 inches above the seat, a somewhat arbitrary level, but a common choice with 17 other states. The House has voted 87-0 in favor of Senate Bill 582 to change the maximum height to the rider’s shoulder level, as measured while sitting on the seat.
Off-Road Motorcycle and Free-Ride Bicycle Compared
Thu, 11 Dec 2008What if anything do bicycles and motorcycles have in common? Besides the whole two-wheel thing, it isn’t outright apparent that these two “handle-barred beasts” share more than ancient ancestry. Modern Off-road motorcycle and Free-ride bicycle designs side-by-side illustrate how much technology the two have in common.
