Hello.

I've been reading this forum for a few months and figured it was time to sign up.

A short story about myself.

I've been riding and building (mostly Harleys) for 43 years.

My last Harley was an used 1986 Tourglide and I modified it to a FLHS after a few years. Owned it for 18 years and put 87,000 miles on it. I've built many rigid frame choppers and modified as many Harleys.

I had a 2006 Honda Goldwing for 3 years and traded it for my newest Harley. The Goldwing was a great bike but boring. I now own a new 2010 Ultra Classic.

I just ordered a set of HarleyGoodies floorboard extensions. I shoulda signed up first to get the discount but figured the extensions are well worth the price.
