Default Shouting out from Big Bear, CA

I just signed onto this forum, looks like a great place. I wish I would have made this my first stop. I stumbled on to a totally lame H-D forum yesterday and was banned within 12 hours of my first posts. It's actually hilarious, I was banned (forever btw) for Inappropriate Language. I was talking about changing the spoke wheels on my 97FLSTS, to HD Mags because cleaning the spokes was a PITA. Yes, using the initials PITA (not even the words) is considered Inappropriate Language over there. Those poor members are walking on eggshells, LOL. Long story short, I'm glad to have found HDforums.com.

I'll look forward to getting to know you folks.

Welcome......nice ride, the roads up and around that area are pretty nice. Just watch out for those young ricers who can't figure out how not to overshoot a turn.

Curious..........are your turn sigs below the tank?? On the crash bar???
