Hi all,
After my test ride a week ago on Saturday I was sold on Harleys after 30 years of saying "You'll never get me on one of thoses things." So I bought a 2009 Fat Boy in black with fully chromed wheels. Saturday 15th I rode my wonderful GSXR 750 K7 to our local Harley dealer in Uppingham Leicestershire to pick the Fat Boy up. Needless to say that I was asking myself "was I doing the right thing". After a realy wonderful and relaxing ride with my wife to Matlock I knew I had made the right move and can not see me returning to a sports bike. Would anyone know of any Harley meets aroud Leicestershire if so I would be greatfull for information eg times,dates and venues.Cad
