Well, it is officially over. It's a sleepless night and I've managed to find my way here. I guess I'll start with a little intro. The name is Ben. I work on helicopters for a living here in good 'ol Idaho. Originally a midwesterner though. I've been riding on, off, and just recently back on again for the past 5 yrs. My first motorcycle was an '03 XL1200C and I just recently fell in love with a '05 FXDLI. That is what brings me here. I enjoy doing my own work to my toys and don't trust many other mechanics than myself. Hopefully I can add a fraction of positive information to what looks like and endless resource here.
Here is a little eye candy from one of my latest rides. Enjoy.
