Default Farewell -- Changing Horses

I've always wanted a VROD, so I sold my Dyna last week andhave an 08 VRSCDX Night Rod Special arrivingin November.As I move on to another HD Forum, I wanted to say thanks.

I've been on the Dyna HD Forum since October 2005 -- not the most active, but always interested in what we were doing with our rides. The Forum has been agreat source of info, especially forriders who needadvice and assistance you may notfind at the dealership.DGlide04, thanks man, you got me started on drag bars and it took off from there. After $3200in accessories and power modsI had a nice ride and will really miss it.To all,thanks for your good ideas, advice and assistance over the last few years. Ride safe.Like the Dyna, I'll have Bronze Star MD plate on my VROD. If you see me, pull me over ---I'm always good for coffee and some tire kicking conversation.

Greg

I'm glad you have the bike you want. It's not really farewell, you're just moving one block and there are many common forums. Look forward to seeing if you put own own custom touches into the V-Rod.

Congrats on the VROD. My brother has one and loves it!

I used to have a Bronze Star plate when I lived in Tennessee, but not in Kentucky they don't so just the Purple Heart plate on everything.

Hey Dyna, thanks for the mention, it's good to know someone took my suggestions seriously. (jk) Just because you've gone to the V-side, doesn't mean you can't post/visit/hang out here also. Good luck with the new ride and don't be a stranger here.
