    No it's NOT a mid-life crisis, well maybe it is, I'm 46 and got sick of waiting for "When I'm 50 I'll get that bike I want"...

    Tragic, but who cares!, I'm having fun.

    My mount is a 2006 VRSCD Night Rod, fairly stock, Nylon Saddlebags, Chrome grips, Plus by the look (and sound) of other Night Rod's I've seen (and heard) the pipes are also possibly non standard/aftermarket . Any clues from fellow members on what they are "commonly" known as welcome.  They have the following stamping" "This Harley Davidson exhaust 65096-05 system meets EPA blah blah blah" The codes on the pipes are 65089-05  HDI UFT-05 and 65096-05  HDI LFT-05.

    I'm South of the River in Perth, but not as far south as Mandurah, where I notice quite a few recent new member anouncements have come from, but I do intend to get down that way on a few rides.

    Cheers, hope too see a few fellow members out and about.

    Nope, not me, more of a Smudgee or Smudger, whatever that means,  but I do hail from the bush.  My folks were chalkies (teachers) so I did the tour of WA in my youth. Planning on revisiting a few those far flung places sometime soon now that I've got an excuse to go for a ride.  Those in WA may recognise some of these "towns", some have grown since I last visted, others have changed or simply vanished: Hopetoun, Kalbarri, Walkaway, Darlington, Gabbin, Yerricoin, Jerramungup, Wickham
