"RESTAURACION SUPERGLIDE 1971" ['ALVARO CASTILLO' POOTUBE] . . . . WHILE WE'RE ON THE '71 SUPERDUPERGLIDE THING . . . . A SUPER TIDY EXAMPLE OF THE REAL McCOY FROM SENOR ALVARO CASTILLO . . . . UNDOUBTEDLY WILLY G's GREATEST CONTRIBUTION TO THE HARDLY RIDEABLE MARQUE WAS TURNING THE BIG TWIN INTO SOMETHING CAPABLE OF SIGNIFICANTLY BETTER HANDLING . . . . STILL MY MOST LOVED BIG TWIN, FROM FX TO FXR, BUILT TO RIDE !!!

A SKIRTSTER FRONT END TACKED ONTO AN FL WASN'T A NEW IDEA BUT WILLY'S EPIPHANY GAVE THE FACTORY A MODEL THAT HAS STOOD THE TEST OF TIME, I KNOW THE DESIRE TO CHOP EM UP IS ALWAYS A MONUMENTAL FORCE BUT THE SUPERGLIDE, EVEN IN BASIC, BOG STOCK FORM, IS ONE HOGGLY THAT DOES THE INTENDED JOB STRAIGHT OFF THE DEALER'S FLOOR WITH VERY FEW MODS REQUIRED NOR NEEDED . . . . OBVIOUSLY THE BODY STYLING BOAT-TAIL KIT WILL ALWAYS BE A MATTER OF PERSONAL TASTE BUT THE PLATFORM AS RELEASED IN THE FIRST YEAR OF THE SEVENTIES IS A KILLER PACKAGE . . . . FOR A DECENT COLLECTION OF SHOTS OF THE MODERN DAY EQUIVALENT, GO AND VISIT THE HATER AT http://throttlelust.blogspot.com.au/ AND TRAWL BACK THROUGH HIS ASSORTMENT OF PICS OF THE FXR . . . . THE MAN IS SIMPLY ILL FOR THEM.
