So Long Money Pit

[VARider07]

Well, after eight years, I sold my last Harley, '05 Road King with 23K mi. - Took it for inspection, it passed, but stalled several times on the way to the shop, and died on the way home. A friend trailered it and offered to buy it. He did, got it home...the ignition and ECM are fried. It needs the cam chest repair for cam chain tensioners. Anywho, he's going to fix it and give me first right of refusal to buy it back. I probably won't; in my opinion, a Harley is a money pit. If it isn't one thing, it's something else. Did I love it? Oh yeah...it was like sitting on a rock. But I'm old now, have the Nomad, and think it really is a superior bike. I am on two Harley forums; I got bashed, of course, for selling it. Hey, I love to ride; I got stranded cold by the Road King. That's it...no more. Happy trails and thanks for reading...we can all pat ourselves on the back for owning a reliable, fun, beasty, Nomad.
