Default RE: 883's only!!!

dallas I have some friends in a motorcycle club and they ask me if I wanted to go on a group ride with them . when I got there the road captian was concerned that i might need to make frequent fuel stops and slow down the ride, after about the third 30 mile potty break, smoke break, cold drink break I expressed concern that my fuel was gonna go bad before it run out . I told the guys I would catch them later told the wife to saddle up and we took off I hit the interstate and we rode memphis bought a news paper and come back home round trip 450 miles . I gave my buddies the news paper and told them this is where you could of been instead of the 7-11 drinking slurpys.

883's ROCK! Especially vivid black 883's.

I've thought a lot about upgrading to the 1200. I'll probably just keep my bike the way it is for now, not add anything extra to it and use it for my daily commute. It works PERFECTLY for commutes to work and joy riding around town.(With two babies at home, I don't have time for long ridesjust yet!)

My long term plan is to have two Harleys: A 1200 Sporty custom and a non-Sporty model (not sure which just yet!).

I'll probably hang on to mine until I can no longer resist the urge for that Pearl Black Dyna Super Glide Custom ;-}

Nothin wrong with an 883. If you want to race buy a crotch rocket.
