Very nice photo of you on the Sportster with big smile. You sure know how to live.
I really do wish you lived next door to us. With you sharing so many of the same interests you would make an ideal neighbor.
I enjoy your videos and the rides around the country tree-lined lanes. I feel claustrophobic at first but I get used to it and really enjoy seeing the countryside. You ride very carefully and seem to avoid the traffic very well.
I actually owned a Harley Sportster recently, it was a gorgeous new one, a 2018 model. I owned it for exactly 30 minutes. I won it on a Casino draw! After discussing it for a few minutes with Wife and various brothers and sisters who were there it was decided [by them] that I would suggest that they keep the Motorcycle and just give me the cash instead. My last Motorcycle was a wonderful suzuki GS550-Four that I still miss. They all thought that I might be a bit "rusty" on my riding skills and I may not be able to dodge all the SUV's driven by cell-phone owners. They are probably right about that. Take care and continue enjoying your great rides and sharing with us.
Hello Flake!
A Harley Sportster.....

...

...!
Of all the various bikes that I have owned since 1950, my dream of a "Harley Davidson" never came into fruition...and I fear it's far too late now....

...!
I am very familiar with all their models since 1903....F-Heads, Flatheads, Knuckleheads, Panheads, Ironheads, Shovelheads, and the Early Evos up to 1998...
...then it all got far too fancy...

...!
A nice '59 Panhead would go down very well now...(in my dreams)....

...!
My present, 1985 - 2017, Honda CMX250C Rebel Twin is Mr Honda's copy of the 1982 Harley Davidson FXWG WideGlide...(apart from the engine)...LOL...

...!
Take care, Flake...and be SAFE!
