Default Newb from Safety Harbor FL

Hey all, new to the forums, old man on a bike. Been riding since I was a kid (Honda 90 step thru, centrifugal clutch) and pwned more rides than I can count. My fav' were (in order of purchase) a '76 CB 750K, '80 Suzuki GS 850G, '85 KZ900 and a '99 ZX1100G3 I bought from my brother when he came back from Germany and needed some cash.

Been riding Harleys for the last five years. My current scoot is a 2003 Dyna Wide Glide. Found this place looking for heat shields for it 'cause the damn thing fries my thighs (actually just the right thigh, but it gets enough heat for both!)

After lurking a bit thought I'd pop in and say hello. Thanks for the references to RJ's. He stopped making the HS for the Dynas but just happened to have one for my '03 so I'm already a happy man for discovering this place.

Rubber Down!
