My name is John. I ride a 2000 Heritage. Sinister blue, 203's, Thunderheader.
I'm 45. I've been riding since I was 11 or 12. I rode my dad's 1974 SuperGlide the first day he bought it in March of 74. I've had various Brand-X's too.
My wife Debbie also rides an 03 Heritage 100 Aniv (Pearl White) VH Straightshots (louder than my T/H--damn !!) She rode a 93 Sporty for 10 yrs (1200 conv, Buell heads etc)

I'm looking at baggers. The look has finally grown on me. I know they ride better (than a Softail)
Can't figure out which one yet though. Rode an 07 StreetGlide Saturday. I'll post a review.

I really like this forum. The people on here seem to be the real deal. Not the typical candya** wannabe's.
