Default How does HD do that?

My buddy is a salesman at the local delarship and I was trying to send him a picture via E-mail. It wouldn't go through. I told him I would print it out and bring it by. I went by to drop off the picture and ended up spending $59.53

I bought some matching locks to go with my new hard bags.

Lol, next time just take your drivers license and leave everything else at the house!

It's like they have a magnet pulling on your wallet. You are lucky, I usually spend at least a $100.00 when I go. In fact, I thought that's what HD stood for...

x2 I am the same way. Some times in the summer we ride to 1 or 2 dealerships each weekend. That starts to hurt...

Why do you think the shop is so close to the parts counter. The exhaust fumes dulls you senses and makes you part with your hard earn $$$... Its the Harley way.
