Default Ohio here.

New HDForums member from Central Ohio.
Found this site while looking for info on the new (to me) 2009 Dyna Street Bob I just bought. (Pics coming)
Been riding since 1968.

First HD was a 1963 XLCH - (Pics coming)
1000cc heads .060 over, hemi pistons, stroker kit, full cam, S&S Super E carb.
It would pull a wheelie in 4th gear. (Only has 4 gears).
Had to get rid of it. Kicker only and I don't weigh enough to push through the compression stroke.
I could push it down a hill and shift into 2nd gear to start it. Shifting into 1st gear just dragged the back wheel.
My larger friend could kick it. So I sold it to him and bought:

Second HD is a 1989 XLH 1200 Evo - still in the garage. (Pics coming)
Not real special, but it has a push button starter!!

Third HD is the 2009 Dyna Street Bob.

Had and rode lots of Japanese bikes of all different sizes. Mostly street, a little dirt. Yamahas, Kawasakis, even a few Hondas.

Nice forum you have here. Lots of good info and helpful folks with answers.
Made me want to join!

Hi JA, looking forward to the PIXs.Take a look around, we have a General HD Chat area, a Techie section where we talk about Audio Systems, Pipes, Oil & Related Stuff, Electrical, Tires/Wheels, and the list goes on…

We also have an area for Trips, Regional Events, Humor, Games, and get this…a Food section to mate.

You name it and we likely have it!

Now, for me regular welcome, see below………

G'day mate,

welcome to HDF.

I will be your tour guide. Be sure to read the manual before posting ok mate?

Or we will have discipline you and if you don't "get it" we will need to discipline you biker style.

Here is a gift for you… LOL! “I so funi!”


Now let’s get serious for your orientation. Go down the hall on your left to the 1st room. No, wait. The 1st room on your right. That is where the commissary is.

Then you will see doors marked for the mortuary, skeet shooting, a room where we make fun of In-Jun bikes, and of course we have a ahh, umm, oh yeah a across the hall.

We had a BOMB MAKING room but, well, ahhhhh, 1 of the guys just didn't understand Blasting Caps very well so..... you know.

We have our own pub .

There are several places where you can familiarize your self with the .

So don't be a wall flower watching others . Get involved.

See you around mate. I am going to the commissary now.



**** ON THE SERIOUS SIDE ****

**** I AM NOT ONE TO GIVE ADVICE ON HOW HDF WORKS BUT… ****
**** AND THE FOLLOWING IS UNOFFICIAL ****

You are in the “New Members Area” where you can introduce yourself and let us know what Harley Davidson bike(s) (if any) you ride/own.

If you have questions about engines, exhaust systems, audio issues, etc… then:

1) Please go to the upper corner and Roll Over “Forums

2) Then come down to and Roll Over “Harley Davidson Tech & Mechanical Forum

3) Then come down to the section that would be most appropriate for your question like Audio Systems, Engine Mechanical Topics, Exhaust System Topics, etc… and CLICK on the topic you have a question about.

You will find the knowledge here is EXCELLENT and these here mates are willing to help you in any way they can. ‘juss be careful. There are some “Trolls”, so I suggest just ignoring them ‘ole farts.

See you around HDF. Come often, we have a humor thread, game thread, and a LOT of other stuff.

Have A Great Day Mate,

BuzzCap7
