Howdy! I have been lurking around the forum for a week or so, since&nbsp\\;I found it. There is a lot of experience and expertise within the membership here! I look forward to getting ot know and learning from all of you.
I dont have a Harley yet but will be getting one soon....within a year...depending on how Uncle Sam's US Navy treats me....I am thinking Nightster or 883L just because I have not been on a bike in 24 years!
&nbsp\\;
Anyway, glad I found this forum!
Jim

Choose wisely, but, there isn't really a bad bike in the bunch.

Thanks for your service.

Thanks&nbsp\\;all!
I went&nbsp\\;to the local Harley dealership here in Pensacola FL today to look at rides again. They had a couple 09 Sportster 1200Ls in the show room. Very nice. It was so difficult not to buy one today! Beautiful rides. I can hardly wait to get one! I have a 1957 VW Beetle ragtop in the garage the wife says has to go before the Harley can show.
