I forgot to mention that I think that it's great that you are getting your Sporty so early in life. I had to wait until I was 54 to get my first Harley. I wish that I would have been able to get one that early. It's also interesting that after I sat on my uncle's Harley when I was younger, that memory of his Harley has stayed in my mind for all these years. Interesting coincidence.

Yeah, thats probably how a lot of people started. The memory of it, and just stayed with them. I was very lucky, since I am 18 and am a ghost (no credit), a close family friend with GREAT credit co-signed for me. This helped me A LOT! He was all for having me put the SE extras on there!
