Hi all

Im 6 month away from having my dream, my first Harley Davidson my first bile even. So hope I can rely on you people for some good advice before I buy and there after. I look forwward to being part of your community and many years of enjoyment from my ride.

I have driven cars all my life but have alot oh friends that ride bikes allbeit crotch rockets but bikes none the less. I have now bitten the bug sold my car and going to work in the US for the next 6 month or so, I work on cruise liners so wont actually be based in the US but dock there every week. I have built kit cars in the past, but have sold it all, I want a HARLEY.

Well thats pretty much where I stand and I look forward to getting to know you all

Rob
