Default new owner!!!

hey guys, i just got onthis site and love it already..I am the proud new owner of a 2000 sportster 883. I am 19 years old, and a freshman in college. The way i got the bike was, i had restored a 1976 camaro since i was 12..completely customized and frame off restoration, the whole bit...but i got sick of drivin it, and had always wanted a bike...well last weekend the camaro went out and a new bike came in...ohhhh im so excited...while at school during the week i went to the dmv and got my temps...im ready to ride!!!! the bike is nice, i think ill get pics after this weekend...i just wish i could get some forward controls for it, seeing as im over 6' tall...but i just cant wait to get out on the road!
