Default Finally!!!!!!
Last friday i took delivery of my 07 Blackcherry 1200 Sportster Custom. I havent riden a bike in 18 years. I was putting money aside ever month while i serve here in the US Army stationed in Korea to purchase a RK....well i had enough of the HD's going past me with smiling faces so I said the hell with it and changed my order from picking it up in the US to just getting one here.

Took the MSF course and away i went....2 days later i had my sportster delivered to Cp Humphreys. Had a total of 3 miles on it...now it has 127 miles on her....and now I am the one smiling.....

I should have done this LONG ago....but i was to busy buying up muscle cars....I finaly understand what the hoopla is about owning one of these scooters.....all i can say is BEEP leave a message after the tone because if the sun is shinning ill be riding.
