There must be somethin in the air. (summer perhaps?) One of my customer/friends just did the same thing E. Walked into the Pub & flopped his Harley book down on a table & said, "Ma...I just bought one of these & I'm scared ____less!" (Everyone calls me Mom even though I'm younger than half of em) He's a 48 year old guy that's always dreamed & finally did it. That means less beer drinkin than he's been doing, but that's actually a VERY good thing for him. Can't wait to tell him, "Hey Billy...ya got bugs in yer teeth!"

Sweet ride BRO!!!!! Awesome- I wanted a bike for so long- Finially got a dirt bike when I turned 21- and proceded to almost kill myself on it (lets talk wet grass- big hills and a jerk who does not understand the term- PUMPING your brakes!!!!) oh yea- it was mee eating grass- then the bike eating me then the grass eating both of us- everytime I tried to push the damn thing away the rear wheel would hit ground and it would leap at me- At one point I had ahold of the pipe- then the front tire was banging me in the back! After a very scary 50 feet or so we all came to a stop- with the bike still in gear and running (guess what idiot picked it up only to take off again??) That quenched my thirst for the wild side! Be careful out there- and HAVE FUN!!!!!

I've had my years on dirt bikes and 4 wheelers. Tore my old ass up quite a few times. My body can't handle it anymore. I used to love riding the trails in northern Wisconsin, getting all muddy, seeing how high I could jump the bike. At one time a few years ago, I had 2 Yamaha Banshee quads, a Susuki 600 dirtbike and a Honda 250. It was alota fun chasing deer up north, and crashing.

Were getting to be old farts. A guy at work bought a new "street glide" from harley, he is 27 y.o. and told me I am old enough to get a touring bike.

Great looking bike. You need to get a chromed out rock tumbler to match now for all the rocks that you find while driving it around. Steve
