    Well after a bit of a search finally bought myself a 2006 Dyna Lowrider so that I can do a bit more 2 up riding with her indoors.

    Few more K's than I had hoped to get but I was happy with the price.

    Pick it up on Wed/Thursday

    Pretty much set up as I want so not a lot to do - just looking to change headlight, Tailight, blinkers, pipes, maybe a big bore kit. lol.

    Anyway looking forward to racking some K's up this weekend getting used to her.

    Tim,

    Thanks for the info.

    I have ordered a set of black 930's and front progressive springs for the lowrider.

    Had a nice run around Dubbo recently.

     

    Its not a Harley but one of my other bikes. Bit different to this now with flat bars etc, I have also fixed the chain (see below rear of frame) Took this while sitting on the side of the road waiting for a mate with his trailer.

     

    Hopefully should have the new shocks in a week or so.

    Regards

    Nigel

     Its done a lit of K's 100,000 + but it was a good price.

    Yep built the trumpy with a lot of help from mates and quite a few cases of xxxxgold and a few bottles of wild turkey and canadian club.

    Yes very different rides, the trumpy is right shift and there is no extra rake, the length is in the girder. I also have a 2007 bonnie that is going through its second lot of mods. Actually stripping most of the crap I fitted off again.

    what is that on the tree right above the mirror? almost looks like a face carved into it.

    I think its initials carved into the tree.
    Pretty quiet area, great place for a few drinks and a swim in summer.

    Be a nice summer run.
