Default hey everybody
New to this forum stuff. Hopefully some of my motorcycling experience will be of use to someone. I am an ex Wall of Death motordrome rider(1993-97). I've owned several bikes from a '27 peashooter, a '40 ulh, and a '74 sporty. Hope I can make some new friends in the cycling community. I currently own a '95 softtail custom. I'd appreciate anyone's opinion on what performance upgrade I should make first.

Welcome from NC. In terms of advice, I'm going to keep my mouth shut because I'm pretty sure you know more than me.

Welcome! Interesting past. As far as upgrades..depends greatly on your riding style. 2 up most the time? Looking to come off the line quicker or have more power at cruising speeds?
