LEGO Harley-Davidson Fat Boy (now retired) is the first ever LEGO set I bought. I enjoyed the build process and displaying it.

Here are some pictures from the olden days:

I think this is a great display model. It was going well until one day I accidentally dropped it and broke the front part:

I thought this might be a good chance to use the lighting kit I had bought earlier:

I kept the broken model as shown in the picture for a while, but the more I looked at it, the more discouraged I got to fix and use the lighting kit.

So I decided to take it all apart and start from scratch. This time I’ll build it from the ground up with the lighting kit in mind. Let’s see how it goes. This is what it looks like at the moment:

I hope I can find the time soon to convert this into a glorious model as once it was.
