Default Nother Noob
Recently joined and thought I'd stop and introduce myself.

I'm a 50yr old North Carolina native. Been riding off and on since the late 70's, mostly rice.

I recently bought an '01 Road King Police Edition from the widow of a friend. I've always been partial to the Road King and she wanted the bike to stay active in the PGR so it was a good fit. I'd rather have my friend back though.

I do most of my own maintenance so I'm looking forward to absorbing all the tips and tricks I can.


Ride Safe. Wear your gear.
Dennis
