Hey everyone,

Didn't buy the HD yet.. Stopped by to pick a few brains before I
drop my HARD earned cash on the wrong year bike..

Been riding on rice since 82 or so.. always wanted a sporty but my
cheap a&& never wanted to pay any Harley tax.. But now that the market
is a bit softer the time may be right.

Hello,from a fellow NJ guy.The time is right,but I wouldn't drop the cash on a sporty.You will be looking to upgrade again in just a few short years for something more comfortable.Spend some cash, & spring for the Streetglide or the Ultra!!
