Considering a New Bike
This one is very hard for to pass up. When I was around 16 or 17(1981). My Dad had a 1978 Superglide FXE/(Had electric start). He had engine work done to it bored/stroked, etc. Very Fast Bike. My brother inherited the bike in 84. He has it it since. It has set for last 15 years or so, maybe longer. I have always been after him to sell it to me("No I'm going to go through it one day"). Yesterday I offerd him 3500.00. He said he would sell it. It will be a project, but I don't think I can turn it down. I will have more than it is worth when I'm done. But I will not sell it, probally pass to my son at some point. What's one more?

Just from the connection to your dad, it's one you can't pass up.

'Zactly.
Sounds like the bike that I ordered brand new but ultimately didn't buy back in the day. If you should decide to sell it someday, please put me on the waiting list.

A three-generation bike? Go for it. Your son will thank you.
