Bit the bullet
I finally broke down and bought the bike I've wanted for years.
Not necessarily the exact bike but damn close. I’ve ridden lesser bikes on and off since I was a teenager and always wanted a big twin.

I found a clean 1989 FLH with all the extras I wanted. It's at the local dealer right now getting a good check up. They're backed up so I'm hoping to get it back in time for our state rally in a couple of weeks.

My six year old son thinks it might be the coolest thing he's ever seen.



The wife loves it too, so there's the biggest battle already won.
