My sister in law was debating about selling hers. After taking it out for an afternoon, I told her to make up her mind about selling it....

Re: Fork Wind Deflictors for H-D Sportster
one of the members in our club had them on his bike and really liked them. They were on a shadow spirit, he traded bikes and has them on the shelf and trying to sell them to me.

It is ...

Re: Bad turn signals on 83 Honda Magna 750c
I am sure you have probably resolved the problem by now. I have a 2003 Spirit, and had the same type of problem and I found where the wire under the seat plugs into the wire running to the rear signal had became loose but not fallen apart. Check the connector plugs and it may solve your problem.
