Default New meat

Well, after browsing and lurking for a fair bit, decided to sign up. Some good information and threads on here, very helpful! Been riding for little over a decade, first and learner bike was a '78 CB750 F2 that I tinkered with and soon made into a ratbike. I got to take care of a '77 Shovelhead for a summer, and after that the Honda just wasn't quite the same.

Bought a new Fatboy Lo a year to the month, and 4600 miles ago, stopped in for chain lube for the 750 and came out with keys type of thing, heh heh. Pipes, A/F and Throttlepak after the first 1k, and now just dumped a grand more into parts to make it a little more long-distance friendly.

Shiny side up!
-John
