Hey folks,
I got my new bike home yesterday. Its a 03 America.Black and silver. Little windsheild, sissy bar/rack, quick detach bags, Corbin touring seat. I rode about 15 minutes before I got to cold. I'm in PA. Stock exaust, I'll do somthing with that. Also ditch the windshield, it comes right off, and the backrest on the seat looks a little goofy. This is gonna be fun, its nothing like my other bike, a 1970 Sportster, this one stops when I hit the brakes!

Congratulations on a wise choice. Get ready to have some fun, these bikes are a blast.

Welcome ...now you see what happens only 24 hours later and the bank balance is under threat. Be very careful with our wonderful site this lot will give you soooooo many ideas. The downside is you will need to have a forgiving bank manager to fund the changes.
