Default Workin on it

Hi Everyone, I live in Canada. Currently My wife and I don,t own Harley Davidsons as of yet. We both ride dirt bikes and have logged hundreds of hours on that type of bike. On a recent trip to the U.S.A we saw and spoke to many Harley enthusiasts , all very nice people by the way.So as the miles went by we got to talking and decided to make it our next goal in life to join all of you in your merriment and adventours. I,ll have a million questions until we finally pick up 2 new Harley Davidsons. For myself a Softail Custom and my wife really likes the Streetbob, but also is leaning towards a Softail Deluxe. What a great and informative website you have hear.
Thankyou from Calgary, Canada.

Have you considered renting a Harley or two? Don't do it unless you're ready to buy one, because you'll be hooked.
