Hey Everyone! Just want to say hello. Also, just want everyone to know that I am NOT a current or previous HD owner, I am a FUTURE HD owner. As in, once I can get back on my feet again, I will be in the market. BUT, I do ride. I ride metric cruiser at the moment and am continuously looking for ways to customize my bike. I will be the first to agree that HD has much more choices in the custom department, which is also why I am trying to modify HD components for my bike. I already have the controls and mini apes, but need more. Batwing fairing, lower fairings and trunk. I ride my bike as my main mode of transportation year round, and this includes the frigid winters of MN. So, want to be as comfortable as possible. Hence, the fairings vs just a windshield which I currently have. So, this is who I am, and I hope I don't offend anyone because I'm not fortunate enough at the moment to ride American.

Holy crap! I guess I can't complain when the weather here is @ 25 degrees and I'm the only one on a bike around here. Welcome to the site!
