    G'day all, I have been hiding behind the curtains watching you all go about your Harley business for a long while now and thought I should finally sign on.

    My name is Andrew, I'm 18 so obviously don't have a Harley yet, I don't actually even have a first bike but should be getting a bike soon, hopefully a Yamaha XVS650.(apparently they're learner legal,and they're nice and big)  And then one day I want to get a Harley Night Train or a Fatboy.

    I have been a Harley nut for my whole life, mum says i was changing gears before i was born. I begged my parents when i was a little kid for about a year for them to change my name to harley, but they didn't comply.

    I went to my cousins farm about 6 months ago and he taught me to ride his Harley Trike, He made it from a Fatboy, that was the best time of my life.

    I have been riding all sorts of small bikes (under 200cc)  all my life, dirtbikes,trikes,quads,  I have a 200cc quad but my favourite was a 50cc mini chopper i used to have, man i loved that little thing

    Well looking forward to reading more on the forums, learning a lot from you all,

     

    Cheers!

    Andy.

    Thanks all, haha 'ADMITTED' thats the word I was looking for. for about an hour i was trying to think of it, even google couldn't help me.

    Bano- I'm in Melbourne, and yeah I saw the Hunter Spyder in a Heavy Duty mag, liked the look of it, it would be nice if it had a v-twin,I might head over to one of there Vic dealers and check them out one day. I'd love to know how they sound too.

    Thanks All,
    Andy.
