Greetings,
I visited this forum a few times and found some useful info from the knowledgeable folks&nbsp\\;so I decided to join.&nbsp\\; I've been riding since I was 17 that were 41 years ago.&nbsp\\; I've owned the same Shovelhead, a 72 FLH for 36 years.&nbsp\\; I've added to the stable since.&nbsp\\; A 68 FLH, a 75FXE, a 57 FLH and have owned another dozen or so over the years.&nbsp\\; What can I say\\; Harley stopped making bikes in 84.&nbsp\\; Being stubborn I would never let anyone else work on them so I've picked up a little knowledge over the years that I'm willing to share.&nbsp\\; I'm looking forward to meeting the guys and talking about motorcycles.
