in april i bought a 2008 883xl to do something i have always wanted to do. RIDE ALONE. my boyfriend bought a barely used 2004 road king and we started out slow. i did take the riders course and learned alot. (since i learned to ride in the dirt many moons ago) i am proud to say since april i have put over 3300 miles on that bike and right now, at this very moment, i am waiting for my 2009 STREET BOB to arrive at the dealer. i LOVE, LOVE, LOVE riding. after a 6 hour ride, he wants to pull in the driveway and i want to keep going.
this is a great site and it's fun to read some stories, get some answers, vent and just know there are some awesome people out there.
ride safe everyone and keep the shiny side up (as they always say to me..hahaha)

I can relate to everything that you said. Congrats to you on the purchase of your new Street Bob. I hope you have lots of luck with it. It is easy to undersand your passion for riding - Rockland County and the Bear Mountain area have some great roads. You have a favorite?
