Default Finally!

Looks like tomorrow will get my Harley all legel, got my Missouri saftey inspection saturday, got the insurance last week, just need tags now and can start riding! I inherited my 02 Softail Deuce about a month ago, it was one of three Harleys that belonged to my brother who passed away of cancer in April but i'm going to carry on putting miles on it like he loved to do. See you on the road everyone!

Good for you. Ride safe, those freeways up there can get downright scary.

Well its all legal now. You don't have to tell me about the freeways in K.C. I drive on I-435 everyday but going to take it slow and work my way up to the interstate, eventually going to ride to work.

Congrats on gettin all legal. Very sorry to hear of your brother, but very cool you're carrying on his passion. I'm from KC area, and yeah, can be quite the experience on the freeways. Happy and safe riding!
