    Beautiful machine black and chrome same as my 2014 Streetglide Shrine. When I see an old girl like that I always think about all the lifetimes that bike has seen out and yet here she is going up and down the street TIMELESS!❤️🇺🇸

    In the early 19th century when INDIAN MOTORCYCLE COMPANY tried to suppressed HARLEY DAVIDSON COMPANY..But, they couldn't you know why? Babe it's HARLEY DAVIDSON ❤️❤️ where the Davidsons brothers and Harley struggled vigorously around 3 decades ❤️❤️❤️

      No Harley today is any better than that 1941. I have an 02 softail CVO 1450, but I wish now I would have found a shovel head cruiser and either rebuilt it or bought a low mileage one. Its less things to go wrong and does the same thing. Nothing has gotten better for the consumer, but instead is more unnecessary junk to go wrong so that marketers can make more money
