Default New Guy Intro
Just got my bike a month ago. It's a 1980 FXS Low Rider that was sitting around for nearly 20 years. Still working the bugs out of it. Used to ride all the time, took 20 years off and now I am back on my bike for good. Couldn't figure out how to post a picture of the bike here but I do have pictures of it on my profile here if you want to check them out. I'll be back asking a lot of dumb questions because I plan on learning how to wrench on the thing myself and I'm not a mechanic by a long shot.
