Been stalking this bike for almost a year now. It finally happened today.

'88 FXRS
16,000 miles
Completely stock and unmolested
Dude I got it from has it since '91 and 3400 miles

I started tearing into her today. Changed up a few things so far but here are the "before" pictures.

Yup. She screams 1980

That's a badass bike you have there. I prefer those over any of the newer Harley's plus they still have the good sound producing head design.

spoke wheels or keep the mags?
what pipes, 2-into-1 or shortshots?

 

[Spivitz]

Spoke, all day

 

[daturbosix]

yeah im a sucker for spokes and whites. but people have said white walls wouldnt look right on this bike. which makes me cry.

Keep the mags and duals but go with something short or up swept.

didnt do too much to it this season other than un-fuck it from its ugly 80s styling.

put short shots on it
lowered the rear 2"
drag bars and raisers
and racked up just under 1000 miles
