Oh, yah. My friend Duffy just bought a '99 Maroon colored 1500 Drifter. They look great.

Great classic look. What kind of stuff for the toy do you have in mind?

TC now that is really sharp. I can see where you could spend lots of money adding to that beauty.

I forgot that the Drifters had the 1500 egine, I kept thinking of only the 800's. Wow, I just got excited now. Once you get rid of those stock seats, they look great. I think there are several used metric bikes that could make good "bobber" projects. Your 1500 Drifter would/will make a great solo bike.

TC,
Looking good and lots of possibilities. The thing almost screams for some fringe on it somewhere...maybe down low on some mud flaps or off the floorboards. I'm not a huge fringe guy, but it looks good on those old classic styled bikes... !
