Owned bike for: 13 months

Tell us about it: “I’ve had Harleys for about nine years now – a Road King was my last bike. I picked up this Scremin’ Eagle conversion simply because I loved it as soon as I saw it. Jenny and travel a lot on it, and even took it on a 300 mile trip to Wales for a Bruce Springsteen concert. It rides beautifully, and I’ve had no problems at all with it, though I did once lose a pannier. It was my own fault: I knocked the latch open before riding off, but it cost me £1800 as they’re hand-stitched leather!”
