Default New guy

How is it going just wanted to introduce myself. Name is Rocky yes its my real name. Ive had a 06 1200r for a few years getting time to start with some performance parts. I already have V&H hot shots and a V&H VO2 A/C. Looking to do some head work and a cam probably get new ignition as well. Not looking for light speed just want to bring the power band a little lower in the rpm range and keep most of the sport bikes off my ***. Lookin to spend about 1000. On a side note anyone know of some events in the mobile AL area. Recommendations appreciated and thank you for your time.

Went to a college with a Rocky. But I don't think you're the same one if you live in Alabama.

First post, you gotta show us your bike!
