Too many of these guys thought that if they ripped the sleeves and collars off their Levi jackets and bougth the "right" jewelry and tatoos,they were instant MC mechanics.

Right about that. Most of the trouble I have seen is from home done electrical work. That and poorly done carb swaps.

I had to order a new rear caliper for my old FLH, so I am down until Wed or so (the old kidney shaped thing)

I don't know if I described it to you but it has STD cases and S&S Super, '75 motor in '72 frame, black with chrome everything, acorns and allens, leather bags and clear windshield. If you ever saw the 5 ft long poster of an FLH from years ago you know exactly what it looks like. New Evos are nice but I love this old Shovelhead.

Did you bring yourself to let yours go?

Gonna sell the Fat Bob next spring. Too late in the year now to be fooling with it. I'm going to keep the frame,tanks,and other parts from my Denver bike though,"just in case". I lost the engine and tranny in a house fire.
