Some 4yrs ago, Eish! came into our lives. She was a brand new Harley Softail Custom FXSTC, 'out the box' & brought immediate pleasure into our lives. She started off looking like this:
Over the following 2yrs, Hubs changed to a customised single seat, added a whole heap of chrome & changed the wheels - which resulted in this:
This year, Hubs finally did what he'd wanted to do for ages - he organised a custom paint job, which resulted in this:
He still wants to tweak a few things, but overall, Hubs is one happy chappy. He has the bike of his dreams. It took over 30yrs to achieve it, but I have to say, it really was well worth the wait!

Eish! is a South African expression used to describe amazement :-)
Sincere thanks to Louis at The Wrench, Willie of Galaxy Custom Paint & 'Tank Girl' for her amazing graphics!

Yay! Is this a new perch on the interweb for you? Are you done and dusted on the old one?
Hey darlin'!
I'm having heaps of trouble with the old one - just keep getting a message saying I can't publish in the selected time foremat - which I keep changing - which doesn't get accepted! I just thought fukkit, I've had enuff, so yep, I reckon this will be my new perch on the interweb!
Hubs has done a great job, and I love the paint job!! xx
Thanks John! Hubs is well chuffed with his 'baby' :-)
Nice. But, is that all you have to offer us? Come on, I know you can do better than that!
Salagatle!
thank god you're back in the saddle again (altho it clearly isn't the saddle on that sexy looking Harley - where do you sit? Don't tell me it has a side car?!) Great to hear your dulcet tones again. Keep it up!
