So I gave it up. SpeedMaster sat for 10 years. Always inside!
I do take a spin now and then on Nancy Lady's 2004 America.

I completely understand that. I have had a few close calls with people not paying attention or on their cell phone / texting. In fact, I don't know anyone who rides who hasn't had close calls. I stopped riding for a while but got back into it when I was refurbishing them. I did that on the side as a hobby but wanted to ride more. I would have liked to have seen you your speedmaster as I probably would have bought it.



My lady would have loved that as it would have given her yet another reason to be mad at me. I'm one step away from being banished to the garage on a permanent basis now.


This is mine.





This is what my Vulcan looks like. I have the Vance and Hines pipes on mine, Highway pegs and Corbin seat with a back rest. I also have the original parts that came with it.
