Went on a shake down ride today...

And a great day to do it! We just stayed on the island and checked out some roads less traveled.  I only lost one bolt and that was for the shift lever So we swung into Ace and picked up a new one. There is also a battery cover M. I. A by Coupeville but that comes with the territory when riding sportster,  they have a tendency to get lighter after each ride!

86 is back on the road!

After two long months she is good to go! I had to take her down for tranny work so in the mean time I swapped out the shocks and threw on some struts/springs and did a little carb work.  I had some issues with the bike running a little on the lean side but after replacing the needle it starts,  warms up and runs a lot better!
