New guy checking in. I purchased an 01 Deuce this last weekend with 20k on the odo. A clean, well cared for bike with lots of chrome. So far I am having a blast. The wife says chapter two of my mid-life crisis but I dont get it. I've done the Corvette things for years and finally decided to ride for awhile... Mid life? Baaaa

Looking forward to learning the ropes as I read and ride...

Cheers all and have safe and happy Fourth!

I just picked up an '03 Deuce with 23k or so. Love the bike but almost too much chrome for me!

My uncle has a '98 Road King out in Woodinville WA. Trying to figure out where to meet in the middle.

Welcome! Good smarts on this forum.

Spent many years in Yakima and have a lot of friends that are orchard & hop farmers in Eastern WA (some in Sunnyside).
