Default Hello From Iraq
Hello Everyone,

I'm a Staff Sergeant currently serving in Northern Iraq and I just ordered a 2009 Fatboy through Exchange New Car Sales. I'll be taking delivery in Scottsdale, AZ when I get home in March, just in time for AZ Bike Week. I'm really stoked and look forward to making new friends.

Thank you and you're quite welcome. Thought it would make a nice gift to myself after 3 deployments and I'm really looking forward to it. I'll be moving to VA shortly after I get back and heard there is some great riding out that way.

Yeah, 2 year long deployments and this one has been a loooooong 15 months. You're welcome. I wouldn't say it's been all fun, but I wouldn't give it back for anything. I can't wait to hit the road. Have a few mods to do to make it a little more personal, but this is my first HD so I'm gonna enjoy it.
