        Nice bikes guys. I've got a '01? Dyna Wide Glide all black with many chrome parts changed out. Nothing special, but I did get the wife to blackout the background on the faceplates. I had to cut a little off the exhaust to keep from dragging on the backroads.

        My father-in-law and I found one of his old Bull Tacos in his old house's garage. We're in the processing going through it, but it seems parts are hard to find nowadays. We did take one of the old YZ250's and retrofitted an old go cart, mating the two up. She features a Moore cable and a squeeze handle to paddle shift the gears. We're still a few weeks away from trying it, but it's got to be fun! I'll have to take some pictures. LOL

              Suicide clutch and jockey shift brings back memories. Love old school bikes.

                  My '67 XLCH was like that. People wondered why I strapped on a parachute before attempting to kickstart it !
