Default Hello from Central Illinois

Great forum!

I've lurked for a while, but wanted post and introduce myself. I've been riding for ~35 years, and while I was away from Harleys for I while, I came back with an FDXC last year... thats morphed into a Road King and an XR1200 over the last month. I guess I have it bad again!

Thanks again for a great resource.
