Hey guys,

I've been creeping here for some time now. Have chimed in here and there on some topics, and bought some parts off some of you, but I haven't officially stepped out to introduce myself... so here goes.

I'm from Ontario, Canada. I've loved motorcycles ever since I could walk, and have been riding for about 8 or 9 years, and late in the season I was lucky enough to get my hands on a 2011 H-D Blackline. My first Harley, and I absolutely love it. And besides the Blackline, I still have my 1976 Honda CB550F, and have a Yamaha XS650 bobber in the works.

I've wanted to introduce myself and post some pics a couple of times now, but the bike kept on changing all the time... The BL was bone stock when I got it (well actually I reverted it back to the original handlebars), then blacked out the signals, installed an HID headlight, deleted the tail light and installed a side mounted Model A light with a vertical license bracket from Road 6... then came the Rush slip-ons, which finally got pulled last night with the rest of the stock exhaust, and were replaced by a set of V&H Big Shots with Big City Thunder QQ Monster baffles. And I think THAT is the way it will stay for a little bit. (I know... still need to upgrade the intake and a FuelPak is on order) I think my love of old school bobbers is starting to creep into this bike as well. Trying to keep it modern with a hint of old school...

Anyhow, I've rambled and a picture is worth a thousand words... so here are some of my new love and obsession...

Mike

 

Looks good, and welcome

 

Both bikes look awesome. What kind of frame did you use on the bobber? Where in Ontario you from? I'm a winnipegger myself

 

hello from kingston ontario

i have the same bike and i like it

you said you put the factory bars on it so i gotta ask what bars were on it when you got the bike ?

p.s. i may be interested in the other bars if you dont want to keep them

 

I have a '75 CB500T in the stable as well...great bike to run around on.

 

Welcome. Great looking bike and some nice mods. I think it would look even better if you lowered it.

 

amassing bike

 

Mike, welcome aboard and great looking bike! I'm liking the bar hopper and hope to get my bar hopper project in the near future.

 

Welome aboard Mike from Sunny Chicago and nice bike. You will never be sorry you got the Harley, it's a day that "will live in infamy"!! as it will always be tugging at your wallet!
