Of course…4 weeks after getting it up here last October, I find a 2,100 original mile Fat Boy exactly like my first bike. The guy is in Georgia and is doing a quick flip. He refuses to register the bike in his name, so I can’t import it to Canada and have to pass. Fast forward to March and I see another one on eBay with 2,300 original miles in Texas. I strike up a conversation with the owner and quickly realize it is the same bike! Young guy bought the bike as his first and had a couple of close calls and got spooked. Bike was in his name, so we made a deal and it’s in my garage. Like I did with the Moo-Glide, it got all oils, filters, tires, carb rebuild, new belt and I put a set of passing lamps on it. I have an NOS engine guard for it also and an NOS seat. Hope to finish it off this weekend ��
First pic is my old bike in 1993. I also found a set of Cycle Shack pipes like my first 93 had, but I’m not going to put them on after all.
