     Greetings from S/West  W.A. 

         Back on two wheels after 30 years,( too long an explanation to go into) kids grown up looking for something else to do so I thought I'll buy an old bike for a project, that'll keep me busy, found an 81 SUZ. GS450 twin great cond. good motor $500, brought it home did some work , took it for a run, felt the wind got the rush thought fuck this I need something to ride while pull this puppy apart and rebuild it. found an 02  Sportster XLH, brought that home (I repeat shit it's good to be back in the saddle).

      I'm still trying to get a handle on  how all this forum, advice, topics,pics etc works so bare with me.

      I've just bought new drag bars for the sportster, 4" rise down from the 8" that was on it, wanting some advice for change over or any tricks to watch out for regarding grips, levers etc in particular the brake line witch I'm presuming will have to be shortened is there info on threads or forums that can give me advice.

                O K Thats enough for now    Cheers from the Bear
