You'll be sorry....................right about the time that you hear it running away with the proud new owner......that wonderful sound that we know and love.......that singular embodiment of everything nostalgic about Harley-Davidson......really, the essence of why we love them.....yeah....some hot night in years to come you'll be just lyin' there with the window open ....tryin' to get to sleep near that highway that we all love...........you'll hear some old Shovelhead chuggin' along comin' your way with some other guy ridin' it.......that unmistakeable sound that brings back memories of Gypsy tours and poker runs past with all of the cameraderie and fun that you had when things were a little different and the world was a little younger and then he'll pass by and the sound will sort of drift off into the wind until it gets smaller and softer and you'll think to yourself, "now why the heck did I do that?..............sob.....sob....gulp.....dammit! ................

Miles I'd love to have that bike, but I'd have a problem with the Appalachian Princess for sure. Can I make payments and keep it at your house?

Yes, i know....i've already thought about all these things. I didn't plan on selling it...ever. But, sometimes life throws some unexpected curves and sacrafices have to be made. At least i'll still have the Heritage and be in the wind with you guys...that's the most important thing.

That might work if i had a house here to keep it in. But, i'm moving out of the state soon and need to get rid of some toys.

Not a problem. I know the pain. Well as long as you've still got one of them.

God Bless you my friend.
