Default Back in the game...

Just a short note of introduction. Picking up my '05 Deluxe tomorrow. Only other scoot in the stable right now is an '03 Big Dog Chopper. i'll post pics of both once I make the Deluxe "mine." Hopefully by the end of the weekend. Other bikes i've owned, '02 Ultra Peace Officer Edition (sold it last year. Dumb dumb dumb), '98 Heritage Classic, '74 Sporty, Honda Magna, Honda Shadow, Honda 600 hurricane, and an 87 Yamaha RD400. Amazing the different paths you go down over 25 years of riding. :-)

I'm from Columbus Ohio, ride to the wall every year I can, made it to the 100th, and on average put 20-25k miles a year on my bikes (combined, I'm not retired yet. ;-) )

Seems like a very good group of folks in here. Looking foward to it.

Hey Gregor,

Welcome from Illinois. Hope the weather gets better for you so you can enjoy your new bike. I was born and raised in Cincinnati and went to school at Ohio State in 1974. Nice town-Columbus. I remember some wild times on "High Street" and the National Guard on standby for Ohio State vs Michigan football games. Moral Tower, 20th floor-what a pit!!!

Like you, I have had numerous bikes
1973 Sporty
1976 FLH
1959 Stone Stock Panhead
1986 Heritage Softail (1st one in Illinois-Red and Cream)
1987 Classic
1990 Ultra w/sidecar
1991 Ultra
1995 Ultra
1995 Classic
2000 Ultra
2000 Screamin Eagle Roadglide

Numerous mini bikes and Riceburners when I was a kid (2 1/2 hp Skat Kitty Minibike to a 650 Yamaha)

40 years of riding (29 on Harleys)

This is a great forum with lots of really nice people.
