Default Becoming a member

Fellow riders and passengers, just wanted to say thanks for all the terrific info and insight I have recieved from all of you. Have been a regular reader of these forums for quite a while now and the only way I could say thanks in a post was to become a member. So Thanks. Been riding some type of cycle for almost 40 yrs but it still seems you need help now and then from people in the know, you guys seem to know what your talking about or maybe I'm just dumb enough to believe anything. Either way here I am.

Hey Mike, welcome to the forum. You will have plenty of friends to hang out here with. And you can believe most of what you read here. This is a good bunch of folks that have the same interest that you and I do. If it's H-D, I'm interested!

Enjoy that ride!

Welcome to the forum Mike. You are right we are a bunch of nice people here and we do know everything. Just ask us. If you've been looking around then you have probably fourn TCSD's DIY Forum. There is a bunch of good info there on about anything you want to do to your bike. The rest of us know a little too.

Stick around and have some fun with us.

By the way:
