    I like the fact that they've gone back to a slimmer rear tyre, the bars don't do a lot for me but but they're easily changed.  To be honest though I reckon the Sportster 72 does a much better job of being a retro styled Harley (I'd happily have a 72 sitting in the garage as a 2nd bike).

    My Girl picked hers up about 6 weeks ago. Was demo model 1000ks on it. Shes had it lowered (shes only 5 foot nothing!) got lagged pipes with S/E mufflers which are being changed for V & H 3" slip ons tomorrow, super tuner, stage 1 air with bobber style cover.. Ive had a bit of a blat on it & I reckon its great. Will prob look at one for myself if & when the time comes to put Bob out to pasture.

     Had a test ride on softail slim today, nice smooth cruiser and very easy riding. Hopefully going order to one soon in denim black with some staggered short shots

    The one at gasoline alley is a 2012.5 model, i like them. Wonder if the fat bob rear wheel would fit.

    Awesome day.........Missus gave me lift to Newcastle. Buy the blackest Harley Davidson Softail Slim i could find. Ride to Singleton. Spend a couple of hours with a few great mates. get home after a lazy 200 kms, eyes stinging, sunburnt, windburnt splattered and with bug guts............ F#CK YEAH.
