My daughter, (a few of you will remember her for the other site where I posted/boasted on her) picked this up Monday evening.

She recently passed the MSC and got a waiver for the MC endorsement, but all of a sudden, her 250 Yammy Star just didn't cut it. Her husband has a 2015 flat black Dyna 1-up something or other, so another HD was the only recourse.
I let her use my FLSTC, but it was just too bulky/cumbersome for her.
This is a '96 1200. 4500 original miles, been in storage at a local dealer since 2010, when the owner died in a car accident (dude around my age).
She bought it from the 2nd owner's son, who held on this long for sentimental attachment, but the time had finally come.
Local dealer serviced it back to good health, the freaking thing is like brand new. I test rode it for her, as niether she of the Son-in-law are familiar with carb beasts. The thing is awesome for her, and the husband won't ride it because of the color.
Going to be a great Labor day weekend. 2 of my 3 kids are HD owners now, and this area is big in celebrating HD anniversaries every LD, the 5th year ending in 3s or 8s are the big parties. We'll have a good (sober) time.
MY 2 brothers also are HD owners, so its a family bike weekend.
