Back in '92 I was sharing a house with a club member, his kids and his girlfriend out Coburg way. It was a  rain filled winter Saturday, we were waiting to go camping.  Sick of waiting and about to leave, one last member, a late arrival, and his girl come sliding through the rain on this fully loaded shovel. He was soaked, she was blond and didn't give a shit... I love the image i have in my head of that moment - I love this bike. I love the times I have spent with it's owner in the years since...

A few months ago my wife and kids found out he had decided to sell this 'owned since new' FLHX... So behind my back - they bought it for me... The other week I flew in and it was waiting with the sun.
