Default Hello

Hello, Bobby here and I’m the new kid on the block (53 years young). I’ve found this forum to be a wealth of knowledge so I decided to sign up. I ride a 2008 SG, both solo and with my beautiful bride of 26 years. I’m a retired LEO and in less than two years we’ll be moving to our condo on the beach in Rosarito Beach with our two bullies (small pit bull dogs). My first post is going to be a question in the audio section. It’s nice to meet everyone and I’ll see ya around.

A happy good morning to you Bobby. Glad to have you with us! Especially because you are a retired LEO. THANK YOU!!!!! I love LEO's. I support them heavily here in the state of Florida. I have so much respect for you guys! Thank you for everything you have done over your years of LEO activities.

Glad you made it to our website. You have some really nice riding out there. In fact my friend the SCMA (Southern California Motorcycle Association) is something you may want to check into. They have fantastic riding programs and the people there are just incredibly top-notch!

And I am not biased because the president is such a good friend of mine he is basically my "brother".

You can find that Association it if you are interested by clicking HERE.


Now, for my regular welcome to you...

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 ****





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

Welcome from Spartan Country, Michigan!
I tell a lot of new comers to the forum to get: Factory Service manual and the Parts manual. Get a three ring binder and record all your maintenance, repairs, accessories, etc. This will be a great reminder of what was done when. And great material to pass along to the new owner should you sell and upgrade. Also know how large your fuel tank is, and record your fuel usage. I have an app called Simply Auto that I record all my fuel used. I use the odometer and use the fuel gage as reference only. I reset the odometer to zero on fill ups, and I know I can safely get 200 miles on a tank on around town riding.
Good Luck!!
