Another newbie..
Hey people,
My name is Greg, I'm in southeast pa and I just joined up here. A real quick history.. I started riding at 13.. went though the dirt bike, scramble, motocross stuff.. graduated to street bikes.. started with an RD 400 yamaha.. progressed through that up a VF750 F interceptor.. I tried road racing for a couple years but couldn't afford to stay with it.. Got out of the military.. had kids.. and gave up bikes for awhile.. kids are grown and I'm ridin' again.. this time on a harley. I ride an '02 Road King Classic, with a sundowner tour seat, V&H longshots, SC breather kit, black wall dunlaps, and a 4 inch shorter than stock windshield. My lovely "spousal unit" and I ride alot, and according to her, she's going to make the jump from ridin'.. well, you know what... to drivin' her own harley in the spring.. so we'll see. Looking forward to a good time here.. thanks
I attempted to post a pic of the RK.. so hopefully that will fly..
Cheers

We did well in Vegas and added on. Windjammer Fairings,Bates trunks and bags,,,,did what can can do with a nice bike,
