Default New from Ohio
I came over from an 05 Yamaha V-Star Classic 650 and before that an 89 Yamaha Radian. My father has a 1977 FXS Low Rider that is in great shape and has always been a Harley guy. I thought I would join the family, so..........

Just purchased an 08 Nightster (Vivid Black) on Saturday. Got to drive it home (about 200 miles), but because of the wonderful weather we are having in Ohio, I haven't been able to get out on it since. So, I spent about 3 hours detailing it yesterday and I have to say it looks great! I also put the gas tank back to its stock placement, as the previouse owner raised it.

When it gets nice I will post some pics, hopefully by Thursday (at least thats what the forecast is calling for ).

So far, happy to be a part of the family!!
