Re: help need
You guys are alot of help. Good thing my wife never read this. Orange and Black, I wouldn't have enough money for shooting. Stocks prices would have to go way up!!!!!!! As it turns out the bike was a scam. I new it was too good to be true. Good thing I am cheap or just like giving money away. So I will keep looking. I here that if you get a bike that rides good and is quiet that sometimes the passengers fall a sleep and fall off. But I just heard that, not hoping that would happen

Re: help need
I been so busy that I forgot about this post. Well the story was that I wanted to talk to him but he was hard of hearing and just wanted to talk by email. The next thing was it was way too good of a deal. And the next was the clincher he needed the money for his house payment. I must be a magnet for these guys. I think its about the 5th time I have found a scam. I guess the best thing is I found a great deal at Hurricane Harley on a trade in of a 2007 Yamaha Venture. Its down in the South, I guesss you can trust people from down their? Only thing I can't figure out is why anybody would trade it in their, SHAKES
Good thing the shipper picked it up today andits on its way home to the rain. Entries are coming in for the 2010 CBC match. Getting a few new people signing up. I am working on this years door prize. Should be another great one. Only bad thing is I set the standards too high at first.

Re: help need
Come on Steve you cant blame those guys for "waking up" and deciding they want a real motorcycle when they trade in their rice burner yama-what and get a HARLEY.
jus giving ya crap Steve, it dont matter what ya ride just as long as your riding
. From what you told me last match you and your wife should have a great time riding your new motorcycle. Your gradually working your way up to hog right?

Re: help need
I agree with Matt. A lot of riders do work their way to a Harley eventually. Once I'm old enough that I can't ride anything else, I'm sure I'll get a Harley or a Gold Wing, too. I figure that I have a good 30 years of being able to ride a reliable bike that performs well left before I have to resort to that, though.

Re: help need
If you need details, I'll have to describe it behind the berm, but a Harley or other V-twin at 5-7k RPMs prior to arriving at a private destination works nicely.
