Feels good, dont it? For a brief period 15 years ago I was out of work, no money, no bike, and every time a Harley would go by I would stare and lust. Got back on my feet, and even though I've probably got 200k miles on 2 wheels in the last 30 years, every day that I swing a leg over my Lucille, it gives me a thrill! Peace to you to.
