Default Hello

Hello all. Just purchased my first bike two weeks ago. Riding is fantastic I should've done this years ago.

On the advice of a good friend of mine I got a '05 1200C Sporty, chopper blue with screamin' eagle pipes and <3k miles. Great sound, lots of oomph, very solid feeling bike. I've always wanted a bike, and decided to treat myself after a couple of brutal years. I couldn't be more satisfied!

Got a pic to show off. I can't believe how lucky I was to get this one. It was exactly the bike I wanted, and at a low price too!

Thanks for all the welcomes! Really makes a guy feel at home.
