The Bike

The motorcycle was a 2003 Harley Davidson Softail Deuce.  A black bike with the 100th Anniversary stripe along the sides of the fuel tank.  New pipes were installed where the baffles were removed to make the engine sound twice a throaty and loud.  You could hear us coming from a mile away.  The bike rode low to the ground.  While you were riding your heals could rest on the front foot pegs for a more comfortable ride.

The solid aluminum rear wheel came with a thick fat tire approximately 150cm wide.  The front fork was the traditional Softail thin fork with a thin spoked wheel resting in between.  My bike was purchased brand new where I only had it for two years.  Unfortunately, I only put approximately 6,000 miles on this Harley.  A seriously low amount of miles for that long, but I had my reasons (Multiple deployments).  At least 4,000 of those miles were with Jojo.
