This is my '68 Shovelhead. I call it "Hardtime" because it has a rigid hardtail frame, and I bought it at a prison, where it's previous owner was doing hardtime for having a meth lab in his barn. The sheriff confiscated everything the guy had, and put it all in the yard where he could see it from his cell and lament his wicked ways. It had sat outside for over a year, so I did a ground up rebuild. The hardest part was figureing out what year/model each part was to get the correct replacement part/kit. From what we researched, it has parts from 1950 (frame) to 1984 (rear caliper). It runs good, but being kick only and rigid, it's limited to short trips, that's all my old back can handle.
Is it possible to have an open primary on a 1980 FXE Model??
