Default Greets from Minnesota.
Hey everyone! I'm Tony and I live in Roseville, MN. I've browsed this forum for a while, but mainly lurked in the background. I sold my 08 Nightster in April and bought an 09 Cross Bones. It's in WV and I'm heading there sometime after midnight tonight to pick it up.

Being a huge fan of vintage springers, this bike was my Dream Harley since the day it was announced. I'm thinking a Fat Boy rear fender will be the first thing I do. It already has Screamin' Eagle shotgun pipes and saddlebags, so that's 1100 bucks I can spend elsewhere.

Here's the recently departed Nightster:


And here's it's replacement:
