Default are Canadians welcome?

Geez, I hope so.

I took delivery on Friday of a new 09 883C.

40 years of riding and owing almost every manufacturer bikes at one time or another, but this is my first Harley...I guess you could say I'm a Harley "virgin".

Haven't been able to say that for about 40 years either........

Loving the sound, the clunks, the whines...everything that makes a Harley a Harley. The wife really likes it too; up till now, she's been content riding pillion...I know my wife; first she's interested in "how does that work?"...the next thing will be a H-D salesman who's my new best friend.

Heavy sigh........

I'm in western Canada, about an hour away from the Rocky Mountains and Banff National Park. Lots of fantastic riding around here, with a riding season that's way too short.

Looking forward to getting to know everyone here, and learning a bit about the bike, the builder and the mystique.

This is my mid-life crisis, and I'm REAL good with that!

See ya

Wayne
