Default Finally, a Harley.....with pic.

Hi all ,I just joined the forum. I just bought my first Harley a week ago, its a 94 Sportster 1200 with a few mods done already.

I'm new to Harley but not to bikes in general. I look forward to hanging out here and learning as much as I can.

It needs some TLC to be brought up to par but I love it. I've already removed the wind screen and pouch on the bars as well as rewired the tank console.

Thanks guys, the bike is ok shape, I'm purchasing a few things this weekend as follows-

Chrome primary , chrome gearcase, chrome sprocket cover, two up seat and backrest.

Also looking into a lower profile handlebar setup.

I'm sure my local shop will love me during the cosmetic rehab/changeover of this thing [sm=smiley36.gif]
