Thanks man. We both did 5 years with 5th SFG Airborne and I got out with blown knees he stayed in guards. We can handle most stuff alright. I havent taken any pitty on him. We play **** man probably 3 rounds of golf a week and if he is draggin *** i tell him suck it up Airborne. He really wants to ride again hopping this job comes through.

Tell your boy man anything is possible brother.

Its got to be that way. When I was taking Bill home that day we put his bike back together, he says "Thanks for treating me like an equal". I told him he was an equal; we both understood what the other meant.

What's up LoLo. Welcome to the party. Thanks for the offer on the bars, much appreciated, but we're good there.

Trying to run across the right guys that know if the derby covers are the same dimensions on an 02 train and an 09 heritage. If no one chimes in with the info before the weekend, I'm just going to pull mine of the 08 SG and the trains and check things out.

Hey COD. I called my parts guy "Charlie" and asked him about the derby cover. He didn't hesitate and said "Yep, it'll fit no problem."

Damn right brother. Hell we go drinking I always take the pitcher and put it in the stump cup and drink it down. DAS BOOT!!! lol I have never since day 1 treated him any different, actually punched him in the face about 2 weeks in when he started in with his i wanna die BS because of his ***** xwife and her not wanting him because of his leg. I am a bit to defensive of him though been in about 3 brawls because of people cracking jokes and stuff but they dont know and will never know the man he is.

Stay cool man.
