Default Hey There!

Hey guys, just checking in with the first post. I havent lurked around the forum much but looking forward to picking all your brains and taking advantage of all the info.

I recently picked up a 2008 Road King. Its a black / suede blue pearl two tone. Many would call it baby blue, especially my friends, but I think the color has a nice retro look to it and has really grown on me. Tomorrow it gets pipes and will no longer sound like a VW Beetle. I cant believe somebody put 16K on the clock with stock pipes! To each his own though. The windshield will be here next week.

This isnt my first Harley, I have had a Deuce and a Dyna in the past. Definitely the biggest though!

Thanks! I just noticed The Gun Enthusiast, I think I am going to like it here!

I tried to open a pic in somebody's thread and it wouldnt let me, any ideas why? And why was "Beetle" highlighted by Bing? Just a feature of the forum?
