Default Hi from Down Under

Hi guys. Great forum you've got going here. Been lurking for a few days and thought I'd better introduce myself.

I'm fairly new to HD ownership and have found some great info browsing here. I ride a 98 FXD and love it (I'll post a pic once I take a decent one... been too busy riding ).

I live in a small country town in South Australia. Beaut spot, but it only has 2 sealed roads out of it... East and West, so there's not a lot of variety in day trips.

Not much else to add.

Cheers,

Sounder.
