Default Greetings from the home of HD!

I discovered this forum some time ago and just decided to do more than just lurk as a guest.

I've been riding since I was a teenager and have had a dozen or so motorocycles over the years. My better half has just a few years of riding experience and decided that she was much happier as a passenger, so we traded in both bikes in Feb 2009 and bought the 09 Ultra under the sportster trade-up promotion running at that time. After +5200 miles riding two-up I can honestly say it was one of the smartest things we've ever done.

I'm looking forward to being a contributing member of the forums.

Happy New Year to all!

Ken
