Default Hello From Pearl River, La

Greetings all,

I don't ride very much at all and have seriously been considering selling my/our FXRS and as I started lurking in the Harley Forumsand reading posts about others enjoying their rides...I'm a little less interested in being street bikeless.I had afeeling that might happen and it's not a bad thing but...a Road King Classic has been calling me for a few years now and I am definitely leaning that way.

So, in becoming a member of the group I'llbe able to reply to some of the interesting posts I read, get to know some of the riders here,get information on the new model bikes andsome tips and resources on getting the FXR in top shape (reconditioning the black paint on the engine mainly).

I look forward to reading your posts and giving a little input myself. I definitely have more to learn then I Have to offer...unless anyone here road races... I'm an old guy but I like riding fast and getting my knee down on my YZF R6.

Oh, been married for 32 years and don't generally take the Harely out without my squeeze on the back. I put 6K miles on the FXRS since I bought it in 1999 .... I sure suck don't I? Peace Bros.

Take Care,
Gene
