Talking Hello from the desert
Hi guys,
I'm from the Mojave desert in Ca. I've retired and now have plenty of time to get back to my first love riding.
I picked this FXR up a while back and realized how much fun it still is.


So then I said Jon you only have a limited time left so down to the dealer I went and got me my dream, a brand new bike of my choice, a new FatBoy, I'm like a kid at Christmas.


Apologize for being me...
Jon

What part of the Mojave you in? I recognize Bakersfield HD in your pic so I figure you're probably IWV area? Welcome to the forum.
