Default another new guy
I got my 08 1200 sportster in may of this year, I've been riding a 400 DR (with my grandson)&nbsp\\;we like to play in the dirt! after wearing that suzy as a suit a couple of times a decided I was getting to old for the dirt and traded it in on a&nbsp\\;new Sportster. WOW am I glad, its a real blast! (still like to ride the 4 wheeler with the grandson)
My youngest son moved back home from OKI&nbsp\\; a couple of years after he got out of the Marines and we decided to buy our bikes at the same time, he got a 883. When were not working were riding! its pretty cool!
Whether you know it or not you all have helped me out all ready, Ive been reading the blogs about shocks, heat, and about what pipes...etc. I really apriciate the information!
I live in Missouri, south of K.C. and look forward to meeting you on the blogs, or black top!
