Default another HDF newbie!
Hi all.....

Don't know why it took me so long to find this forum. Guess I never thought about searching for an HD forum before. I work part time as a sales associate for HD of Washington HD of Washington

I crashed and burned my custom '95 sportie on the 2nd of October this year. Bitch made an illegal U-turn from the right lane of a 4 lane ramp directly in front of me..... when I realized I wasn't going to be able to stop in time, I dumped it.... minor injury (whip lash) and some road burns on my left side. The bike however, never survived, may she rest in peace.

here is a pic of the sportie!



So.... I finally got the softail I've always wanted. It's an 01 night train



see more pics at my website
