Turn back now, quickly, before the dark side overcomes you and our influence makes you spend all of your time riding, thinking about or talking about Harleys here,
Oops, I mean Welcome from central, IL. Good to have you aboard. Art

Welcome Lurch!

What kind of bike do you ride? I'm a newbie also, but I am female so my posts pile up quickly but are more questions than answers, lol.

You'll like it here. Everyone is friendly and they will definitely steer you right when it comes to info on your bike. Thye helped me purchased my first bike ever and I am in the process of getting it "road-ready."

Should be out for the first road trip Saturday. Anyone want to babysit?
