    Thanks for all the welcome messages guys.

     
    I am looking for some like minded guys in and around Perth who may already have a steady riding group who may be interested in another bloke tagging along. Should have my bike on the road and ready to go my the middle of July. While I work with a few blokes with bikes not many of my core mates are into riding so was hoping to join in with a Harley orientated group of good guys who love to take a ride and have a beer. Any suggestions or offers would be greatly appreciated.
     

    Cheers fellas.

    G'day Gibbo

    generally when a ride is being organised you normally get plenty of warning.

    that way if your working you can change your shift or have a sicky

    Gday fellas

    Thanks for replys. I met Bluey the other day, great old bloke.
    I am 32 but new to the big twin scene so not really out to brake any records, not yet any way, haha.
    The bike should be pretty quick, I guess. I have ordered V&H Big radias pipes, SE heavy breather air cleaner kit and a SE race tuner for it so should go alright. I gotta used to it before I start pushing too hard though. Anyway hope to see you guys on the road soon.
    Cheers.

    Hi Gibbo,

    More often than not we post up rides here with plenty of time for all and sundry to find excuses not to go mate, So while your waiting for ya bike mow that lawn, chop the wood, take the missus out to dinner, do the dishes and all the things ya can think of to allow ya to go and play with the boys.....

    If your bike is stock standard it will be fast enough, partic if your still coming to grips with it....

    Cya on a ride soon....
