Nice sled!
Seen on the road in Southern Indiana Saturday...
This couple, 70ish perhaps, have spent lots of time and treasure on this high-miles Evo 'Glide. A crowd magnet, for sure...

Re: Nice sled!
That is something. Definately a throw back to days gone past. The last guy I new that built them like that was a guy (and it was his shop name too) named Feets. You'd go into his shop and half would be bikes like that and the other half choppers. He died in the 70's and the shop was torn down, boy do I miss that place. Wish I had a good camera back then. I kick myself for not taking pictures.

Re: Nice sled!
Did you get to talk to them at all? Surely they have to boost the battery or charging system somehow to keep up with all that, don't they?

Re: Nice sled!
Maybe with LED's they could do it with the stock high output alternater - I don't know, I'm just thinking. Back in the day they just ran them with the stock generators, they replaced the batteries often and could usually disconnect some of the lights for running when the genny couldn't keep up. And back then, no lights on during the day.
