And the story:




Here's my '03 FXST. I bought her brand new in June of 03 after returning from a year in Kuwait. She had 2 miles on the odometer when I got her and it now reads 72,325 miles! I specifically bought the base model softail cause I knew what I wanted it to look like when I was done personalizing her. I went for the fast & sleek look. She runs like a champ and the 95" kit really gave her some kick! Hope you all like her!

Accessories: PM Phatail w/ 240 rear tire, Platinum Bleed Feed Air Suspension, BDL 3" Open Belt primary, LA Chopper Super BFL Handlebars with Internal Wiring, Arlen Ness head light, Joker Machine Rear Peg mount directionals, Flush chrome gas caps, Kuryakn air intake.
And the story: A work in progress since 1999 and finally completed last May. The frame was chopped by Shadley Brothers and they added the new neck to accomplish the 38 degree rake. They stretched the tanks as well. The Performance Machine Phatail Kit along with the air suspension and conversion from belt to chain final drive and BDL 3" Open Belt was done by FTF Cylce. The paint was done by Warren Alessi. The engine is a stock EVO to this day! Chrome added by me! I like to think that is has been inspired by some of the great 1960's and 1970's era choppers and some of the latest custom choppers as well!!

And the story:

I just bought this lovely lady and am in the process of getting her back on the street. She's been a show queen for several years and not ridden very much, if at all, in that time. She had no rear brake when she arrived, the clutch was slipping badly, the carb was over flowing and it took 3 1/2 hours of kicking to get her to cough once. She starts pretty easily now, if you hold your mouth right and talk sweet to her. Her gaskets and seals are starting to take hold now so she doesn't leak and smoke as she did last week.
