The Harley's are coming...


The predictions are coming true. I beleive it was Du Keeps who predicted that within the next 5-10 yrs we'd see a flood of Harley's hitting the second hand market on account of the Boomers realizing they wernt bikers after all (couldn't happen soon enough if you ask me). This year I beleive we've seen the beginning of this trend. Although it hasn't started with EVO's yet, I have seen an unusual amount of ironheads hitting the market for great prices. I know I know not the best engine HD ever made, but a close relation to the Shovel, they have a great look and are well suited for choppin and bobbin. And for $3000 it get's awful tempting to take a crack at one. http://saskatoon.kijiji.ca/c-ViewAdLargeImage?AdId=156074253&ImageIndex=2

  1. No, shit. 3large. It seems (reasonably) just to be the sportys that are starting to come cheep. But ya, unless i had munny to burn i'd rather take the mid 80's jap crap. Or ad another 1.5k and get a modern shadow...
    Unfortunatly i suspect it wasn't till the late '90's that the sportys were anything special. (to drive)
