Greetings All:

Just aquired a 2002 XL 883 R Sporty. Bought as a daily rider to save gas, I'm beginning to see

the genius in this machine! Great rip, handling and vibe, I just don't know why I have ignored

Harley for so long. I have owned Triumphs, Moto Guzzi's and still own an Aprilia. Very fine to

have finally come home. Look foward to hearing from you folks.

R.
