thanks big D. those odds are very comforting. we wont be using her much for road trip-like driving. just all the local hauling and working sh!t.
as you mention your son and his accident, (i hope all is well) i was just looking at a 1978 lowrider. guy's practically giving it away. thats the exact bike i had all those years ago. the day i watched my buddy die right there in front of me i went home, sold my bike and havent ridden since. but dam i'm tempted.

Aint nothing wrong with a DAKOTA. Here's my DAKOTA that I had up until I DURAMAX'd the BURB. And yes it was a fun truck, with the 4.7L V8 it would move out pretty good and just sounded MEAN!

My Previous bike was a 1980 low rider. However, it was not patriots blue like my current 2001 road king, it was black.

If it is also patriots blue, you HAVE to buy it!!!!!

And good luck with your dakota, hope you have as good of luck that I had with the ram I previously had.

I would bet that 'glide is out of your price range that limberslinger posted, but I like the color...

He was pretty badly banged up... he had new tires on it and the bike went squirrly on him at 80 on the interstate out in the desert on the way to California... flipped him.. broke his back, legs, bunch of other stuff. Man, I never want to get another phone call like that from a state trooper telling me that I should not get my hopes up...

He's doing fine now, thanks for your concern.. :) Got his torso clam shell cast off about 2 months ago that was keeping his spine alligned properly while the bones knit. They put a Titanium cage around 3 vertabre in his spine. He'll have fun going thru metal detectors from now on..lol. All in all, since he should be dead, he's doing great. Doc's think he can go back to work in another 6 months or so. Meanwhile he goes to phys ed 3 times a week to strengthen everything. I've dumped my bike also CTT... and yes, I've been tempted to ride again. Problem is I know that if I do it's not if, but when will I have my next accident. And will I live through it? Don't give in to the temptation my bro.. we want to talk to you, not about you.
