Smile Hey, I made it this far.....

Hey all.

cave9269 here.....Lake Ariel, PA...fresh from the Aprilia Forum.

Been riding for 16 years...Dual Sport, Jap Standard, Italian Superbike....finally made it to my teenage dream- HD.

Went with the FLHX.
Found a sweet 2011 with the 103 PowerPak option, barely used at Brian's HD in Langhorne, PA. It is Vivid Black. I am having them throw on a King Tour-Pak.

Looking forward to this chapter of my motorcycle life.

1st long tour is already booked as I ride the glide from northeast PA to the Smokies in early June....lucky Glide.....1st big trip and she's going to the Dragon...spoiled!
