For me it was the Summer of 2008 while on a group ride from Central PA to Dragons Tail in NC. Twelve Bikes and fifteen people on a 12 hr straight run from York, Pa to Stecoah, NC to meet up with two locals for a weekend of riding in some of the most majestic and windy mountain roads in the area. John, One of our local guides pulls up on a '99 1500, I had never seen or heard of them before, I was hooked! I spent the better part of the four day trip with questions to John about this vision of stylized beauty before me, Like a little kid with a grade school crush. John was very gracious and patient with going over everything about the Drifter, Features, History, How they rode and handled, Cost etc. I could see how much he truly appreciated this magnificent work of art. Prior to this encounter I had what most uniformed guys have... My "Harley Fund" this was soon scrapped for the search of a Drifter, One year later I found her and was able to buy it outright (No Payments) I now have the pleasure of explaining to others about the qualities and joy of owning a Drifter just as John did... With grace and patience.
