Just thought I would introduce myself, my name is David lining in the Dallas area. I've been looking through here for the last week. I just bought an 08 nightster after selling my 07 gsxr 1000. I'm out of the goin fast stage and just want to cruise. Looking forward to learning about the bike. I see there is a lot of knowledge on these boards.

Welcome David, I'm another David, Dave (a 70 year old one), each of us will give you our take on any subject and once in a while we'll agree with one another. We are a brotherhood with Sportys as our common denominator. Enjoy
