[QUOTE=groupw;15153772]....... why ?
..... new guy joins forum, doesn't read rules, doesn't intro hisself via the top'o-the-list 'new member' thread, dives right into the Touring section w/a 'hey, i'm new here & i wanna buy some parts' posting when he can easily see that there's NO parts wanted/for sale threads anywhere
.......... and then he feels 'uncomfortable' when the new member moderator steps in ?
Actually I did introduce myself in the new member section, but was moved to the Dyna Glide section. As far as the rules, no I didn't read them, I jumped the gun and posted. I don't feel uncomfortable, I didn't feel very welcome after the post from the new member moderator. But hey, I got moved to the touring section and now I get to chat with you!
Welcome from CA. Lots of great people and advice here. Got a pic of that Street Glide? Is this your first bike, or have you been riding for a long time?
