Re: Shovels
Had a 75 shovel,went to my dealer for a piece of wire to fix the tail light,came out with wire,AND my Wide Glide,orgasmic experience to ride faster than 60 and not get vibrated off the bike!!Sold the shovel,got some bling,never been happier!

Re: Shovels
A local dealer brought a full line up of 2008's for us to test ride...I rode a Heritage (the one I'd buy if I bought a road bike for long rides)...too many gears...could not keep track and enjoy the ride...I could however get used to it...very smooth...I will not sell my 83 FXWG tho...I like the vibrations...my own Milwaukee chiropractor...

You can only hear it when 2 shovels are running side-by-side or in a short stagger. EVOs and Twin Cams don't do it. Just the shovels. It's the one thing that AMF did right. They gave the shovels a soul. There's nothing else like it in the world. That's why I still have my first Harley.
