Thanks for the add! Been riding off and on for just shy of 30 years. My first Harley was a brand new '02 Night Train. My most recent, as of last weekend, is an '05 Springer EFI that needs some TLC, mostly cosmetic after the previous owner went down, but she's gonna' need some new parts for sure. Plan on putting a Wide Glide up front and going from there.

Big shout out to my Dad who bought mine, and a '95 Electra Glide at the same time, that also needs a little TLC. Looking forward to the time we'll get to spend together getting them back on the road and the miles we'll put behind us.

Welcome from NW Washington as well. Can't deny the scenery, but the weather gets uncooperative often. Still manage to squeeze in a ride here and there. Went almost to Mt. Baker yesterday.
