Default new guy here

Hey all,

Been riding for 'bout 13 years now, mostly sub-$500 Hondas & Yamahas. Rode an HD for the 1st time last summer on my honeymoon in Maui - a '37 Knuck, man what a blast that was. Just picked up my 1st a couple hours ago - a '00 1200 Custom, everything's perfect except the color - Concord purple (ugh...). Well, next paycheck it'll be black - if anyone's got any tips on a place to get a decent, not too $$$ paint job in the Hampton Roads area, I'd appreciate it. Hope to get some pics up soon.

-justin
