Hey everybody. I posted in the Sportster forum but I guess I should introduce myself here as well.
Just purchased a 2006 Sporster XL883R. Picture of it attached. There are definitely (as I'm sure is obvious) some things that I'm going to be changing but at the price I picked her up at I couldn't go wrong. First bike and she's a Harley! Not bad if I don't mind saying so myself. Beats running and spending the money on something I didn't want.
Anyhoo. Figured I'd say hello. I'm starting from scratch and will be taking a course in two weeks to learn how to ride and go from there.
