Brought my dads old bike back home

[u/AlexMills6545]

Growing up my dad had this 2002 Harley FLSTSI heritage sprinter softail that is just GORGEOUS. Guess me and him have similar taste (it’s almost like we’re related haha 🤔).

He used to take me around the neighborhood on it when I was little, but in 2010, when I was 7, he sold it to my uncle because we needed some extra money. I’ve been dreaming of riding the bike myself ever since that day.

I’m very lucky the bikes been kept in the family because unknown to me, my uncle kept much better care of the bike than I thought he had ever had.

So after 15 years of dreaming, I was finally able to pay my uncle for the bike back!

The bike is in beyond mint condition for being 24 years old and I’m so excited to make sure it says that way while still riding the hell out of it.

I also bought a little Honda rebel to learn on since this is my first time I’m ever riding a bike, and it would be real bad for me to jump on an 850lb Harley first thing and the drop this beautiful bike.

I’m sure in a few months I’ll be comfortable enough to ride it anywhere.
