This was my first Harley that I bought from my Dad, as it looked when I got it…

Man, that thing was a blast to ride…around town. At highway speeds, that old EVO motor would shake the living shit right out of ya! In fact, when I had it dyno’d after the engine work, when he hit 5th gear and wrapped it up, the shift lever, tail light, and a mirror fell off the bike before he shut it down! I sure miss that old girl.

I remember when I got my first rubber mount. Wow ! What a difference. Smooth. And then got a Softail with that "B" motor. :)

Here we are with the youngest son, circa 2005.

How did I miss this Thread?!?!

Started riding in 2005…first went to the track in 2008 and it’s been downhill since in moved to Tucson in 2010!

Currently race two Suzuki Superbike’s. A 2001 GSXR 1000 and a 2021 GSXR 1000R. I’ve owned everything in between except a proper cruiser and a Honda.

My Wife rides a 2022 Kawasaki Ninja 400R 💪🏼

I wadded my race bike up at 100mph on Saturday battling for 7th on the last lap.
I set a personal best lap time in that race as well-was finally getting my mojo back.

Bike is repairable, body is sore but otherwise just fine. I lit up a stick and walked out to the wall to cheer on my Teammate afterwards!
