You did everything right, except when you want to get the URL of the picture by right clicking on the picture itself instead of using the address in the address bar. (if that makes any sense).
Thanks, Mac. Yeah, makes sense. I knew something was wrong.
Your sure went top of the line with your first bike, take your time, get used to her and then ride her like ya stole her!!! Enjoy and Ride Safe!!! By the way I love your choice of color!!!!
Thanks. I went to the dealership looking to order a Peace Officer Special. But then, this one was on the floor and I swear she started winking at me!! Well, with that kind of an attitude, I just had to take her home! What can I say?
I'm blessed, though, because the original ball and chain was very understanding about the matter, no jealousy or anything. So, see you on the open road!
A lot of people get acused of having a mid life crisis when they buy a harley. Since I've always had a Harley I just put on a shorty windshied for my mid life crisis[sm=icon_cheers.gif]
Another welcome to the forum, this one from lower NY State. Mid-life crisis at 40? No way. It's an investment and way more fun than Real Estate. Good luck on the new cycle.

I don't know if I would call this a midlife crisis, more of a "come to your senses and live life to the fullest" kinda thing! Life is waaayyy to short, to skimp on the things we want to accomplish in our lifetime. We all seem to get caught up with work, the kids, cleaning the garage...whatever. It's no longer a money thing. Ya always seem to get by somehow. Biking takes you that one step further to complete contentment.
It's time for YOU! Enjoy the ride!
And for what it's worth, taking a riding course is a great idea for anybody, beginner or experienced rider. Good for you!
