Default Greetings from the San Francisco Bay Area

I've been riding sportbikes most of my teenage and adult life. I currently have an Aprilia RSV Mille R that I'm selling and intend to purchase a Harley in the near future.

My friend has a 1998 Road King that's had a fair bit of tasteful customizing done to it and only has 17,000 miles on it that I can pick up for a song. I reckon most of my questions in the near future will pertain to that bike until I purchase it and get it squared away.
