Default newbie...

hello everyone.

just wanted to introduce myself, I will be lurking around reading and learning. I am from Winfield, WV and Im 24. My boyfriend has a 2007 Night Rod. I grew up on Harleys but for the past 4 years i have been around sportbikes and I know a lot about them, but as for Harleys...well i am starting to learn more now that I am around them more. Tho I grew up on them, I didn't know much about them.

anything you can teach me and if u can point me in the direction of good buys for his night rod, that would be greatly appreciated.

I usually go to the Myrtle Beach Bike Week, but guess not this year since the rules and all of the regulations of the city....Also I am good friends with the guys in Rebel-Son ( for anyone who goes to daytona and myrtle, should know them). So I have always been part of the bike scene because its part of my family.

Anyways ive rambled enuf, i just wanted to say howdy. =)

Welcome from Bristol, England.

For advice on what to buy for your boyfriends VRod I suggest you check out the area of the forum dedictaed to that model. However, as the name suggests, personalising our bikes is a very personal thing so while your intentions are no doubt good, you might be better off reading up on this model of bike and then keeping your ears open for what parts your boyfriend wants himself. Or indeed ask him.
