    HiGuys n Gals...

    Just introducing myself to the forum. Am travelling down the coast tomorrow to pick my new 08 HD StreetBob and can hardly contain myself... hence spending all my time browsing for custom parts etc rather than doing anything useful. Been riding Japanese sport bikes for ever, most recently an as new GPZ900R A1 1984 (top gun bike but bigger) ( hence the XAOne ) -- but the shoulders and wrists are a liitle too stiff and the girth a bit to wide to be leaning over these rockets anymore so figured it was time to bite the bullet and get what I had always wanted. Hence the trip tomorow 200miles south to the nearest dealership....

    Cant wait.......

    Wow... Thanks for the hearty welcomes.... 

    Arrived at the dealer 12:30 Friday morning and organised the paper work etc... the bike was still in the shop having plates etc fitted... was chatting to the sales guy John, re choice of pipes and saying that maybe I should have gone with the V+H radius rather than the screaming eagle... At that point the bike was started up next door and as it was rode round the front of the shop it set a car alarm of...  figured that the SE's would do just fine...... 

    Had the new love of my life for all of 24 hours and just chalked up 600 kms.......   Great run from Port Lincoln back the 270ks or so to the home town of Whyalla and figured that wasnt enough so filled up again and headed another 120kms north to Willmington for the night.....Then back home this morning..... AWSOME BIKE...!!!!  I cant wait till she is fully run in, which at the rate I am going , will be in the next week or so.. 

    Down the beach this arvo for a spin and met up with some local HOG chapter members and was invited on a short run tomorow... Should be great!.... That run in phase will be over before I know it....

    So many questions re further mods but will wait till I am more aquainted with the bike before asking the questions and deciding upon additional changes.

    Lovin It !!!!!

     

    Cheers Mark
