Ok I know exactly where you are at. That shop always looks busy!

Got a "new" bike to me about two weeks ago... 2004 HD Softail Deuce with only 2,000 miles on it. Wasn't really in the market for a new cycle but just couldn't pass it up for the price. It is super clean and was very well taken care of... I'll try and get some pics soon.

**Inkdcountryboy** · 08-24-2012, 11:37 AM

I'll get some project pics going... how are you liking your duece? bet your loving that twincam. I miss my 88 twincam with cams and ignition that thing would scoot

**travj31** · 08-25-2012, 09:50 AM

Deuce is awesome... major step up from the 883 Sporty I was used to. The bike has no internal work done, but does have Vance & Hines Pipes, different air cleaner, and a Thunderslide carb kit... For a big bike I think it runs pretty damn good.

That was a hell of a deal!!! ... only needed about $600 in parts and two long weekends to make it pass enhanced inspection. I would have done it but just got married, bought new house and priorities have changed.

i know... believe me, i gave it lots of thought many times

Anyone have any bike projects this winter? I'm planning on putting some drag bars on my Deuce and a couple of other minor changes, but that's about it I think. I'd like to sell my GF's Honda Rebel Bobber come spring time too...
