    Hey everyone, if you like what you see join up and get involved, the only way to ask a question or get advice is by joining up, so what are you waiting for.

    kingchops, this site has alot of potential, after seeing the US site. But we need alot more people to put input in and share there knowledge base to assist and help others, and of cause meet friends on the way.

    Yep, definately agree. The site is only just over a month old, I rekon we haven't seen anything yet. I'm working on getting a couple of magazine ads posted which will help things along as well.

    From what I've read Australia has the most HD per capita out side of the US, so I agree we're not doing to bad

    Going back around 10 to 15 years, when the WA cops had Harleys, Perth had the highest "per capita" Harley ownership in the world. I'm not sure how many bikes the Constabulary run but it's probably not all that high a number considering how rarely you see a motorcycle cop on the road!!

    I must say that I am constantly amazed by the number of individual Harleys in immaculate condition that roll up to the Toy Run in December.  That means a lot of Harley dudes who are not in a club yet may well enjoy a ride with other Harley riders from time to time. That's one area where I see this forum being a great connection.

    Why not design a nice route, call a date and time and invite everyone to join in for the fun of it. No membership, no fees, no rules and no competition. You just can't have too many mates!!

    cheers

    PS I believe Indonesia has a surprisingly high per-capita HD ownership. With 280,000 people there are quite a few rich ones!

    You and me both Mega!! I go to Bali most Junes and always drop in. An SE bike is around Aus$85,000!!!

    Back 3 months ago I was giving a local guy in Bali a few hints on kitesurfing at the local school. He had a Harley T-shirt on. I asked him if he owned a Harley. He said "I've got eleven"!  I felt like a real dickhead! He brought his SE Ultra down to show me the next day but I missed him.  He is actually a very nice bloke and very friendly like most Indonesians. Guys like us don't really know what "rich" is!

    Apparently, several years back there was a limit on engine size for bikes. The local Harley riders got together and bought a Harley for the local Police Chief. The rules were changed. That's what I call a democracy!!

    Now, Mr Howard, about this noise control  and front number-plate crap........... why don't we have a little chat......

    I was there July this year. I got on well with one of the sales girls last year but she wasn't there this time I have a bad habit of buying clothing from there even though it coss a bit more than here generally......but I like having a Harley shirt from Bali with the shop name on it.

     That's right! I forgot about them getting the Chief the bike! Ha haaa!

     Johnny Howard wouldn't go for loud pipes.......it'd drown out the dwarfs voice
