Default Iowa new guy
Finally got a harley. 2005 sportster low. Raised on dirtbikes and jap bikes. Bike came with struts instead of shocks.... What a back breaker. New shocks (ebay). Lots of info on this site. Sure I'll have questions as no speedo on the bike either. Anybody in SE Iowa want to ride give me a shout.
Also have a few old 6wheelers and a 1937 Plymouth rat rod.
