I've checked in here now and then and mostly just posted meaningless stuff, I'm going to try and visit a little more often now, and since Inever introduced myself I figured I might as well.
My name is Victor, I live at the lake of the ozarks missouri. I've been riding bikes since I was very small with dirtbikes but I took a very long break in riding. My first bike as an adult I bought when I was around 22 and it was a 1976 sportster (basket case) that me and my dad put together. we built it just so I could sell it but after riding it I got the bug for riding again so I traded it for a 97 softail, I had that bike for a year or so and traded it for a custom built bike and kept on trading till I ended up with a 2003 exotix 96" S&S 6 speed trans 250 rear tire etc. I rode that bike for a few years and got tired of all the problems I had with it and ended up selling it. I looked at many bikes to buy and rode them all and I finally came to the conclusion that the bike for me was the Vrod, I couldn't be more happy with this bike! It took me awhile to actually decide to do it, I was one of them people that bad mouthed the Vrod at the beggining but after riding it I couldn't think of getting anything else. I still miss the sound of my old bikes but hopefully some day I can add another bike to the stable along with the V.
Anyway, it's nice to be here! I'll try and check in more often in the future.
