new_bike_002.sized.jpg

its a 2001 harley davidson sportster 883xlc. it has a ton of custom parts and chrome. only 8000 miles so i should be good for awhile. during the slow season i will be taking it in the truck with me so maybe i can meet some more of you people who arent so close to a place i can park my truck now.
 
nope im a fair weather biker. dont ride when it snows, rains or is under 70 degrees. nawww not really but im not riding in the snow
 
Your right Del,,I will get a kick out of it :D May-be I'll get to take Becky for a ride and she'll let me get one

I've got a '96 883xlh. You're gonna love it. Nothing better in the world...at least nothing we can talk about outside of the adult forum!!! Seriously though...they are awesome. Live to ride, ride to live, my friend.
 
Everybody's gettin' Harleys. I know someone else around here who picked up quite a beauty recently.

Wasn't me though. I'm like Nut, I am not allowed one. :(

Somebody somewhere has got to give me a ride and soon, I'm about going crazy to feel that rumble and power between my thighs. ;) :D
 
Nice bike, man!!! From the pic, I thought it was brand spank. Love that Glacier White Pearl paint!

Yeah...I still haven't figured a good way to post the pic yet. I picked up a '95 Heritage last Thursday with low miles and lots of pretties. I am in love! Mine is black with red/orange pinstripes and graphic.

I was kind of quiet about it except for telling Mo, because I've already gotten accused of being a Harley Snob in another group...me???...snob??? Never!!! I just got lucky and had a deal fall right into my lap. I was beginning to think that I'd never find the bike that suited me for the right price. I enjoy my old classic Brit bike...but it is too little to go too far on...and parts are a week or two out. :eek:

Big biker rally at Ignacio, Colorado this weekend...I may just have to twist off and go!

You said you were trying to figure out how to post these so hopefully you don't mind me doing it for you Rogue. It is one purdy bike!

WTG guys but Keep them bad boys locked up. I lost three while I was in the Navy, an FXRT. a FXR and a Sporty. Just this past week I've started thinking of getting another. I been thinking the 883 and putting the stroker kit in it. I should wait till my kids are grown but thats still 8 years away.
 
Damn Tim!!! I need to come work for you!!!

I'm scraping the bottom of the piggy bank to come up with the 'Outboard' money.

Have fun, but watch out for the Blue hairs! They get 'cha!
 
Thank you, Mo...you did me a big favor here! I've just been so busy I haven't uploaded them to AOL where I can post them to a B/B.

You can bet your bippy I keep that baby locked up!!! I'm planning putting a door back in the room that is behind the scooter in the photo. It used to be a 1 car garage, but is my computer and weight room. I can rearrange things so the Harley will fit in here too. :D I'm sorry to say, I'm not the most trusting soul where the Harley is concerned...especially here on Main Street, Smalltown USA.
 
Nice bikes guys. Anybody here watch Orange County Choppers? Now, those are some bikes that I would love to have!!! But Tim, you say you wont ride in rain, snow or in weather under 70 degrees, so does that mean you wont ride up here in Washington? LOL!!

As a matter of fact, Orca...I enjoy American Chopper. When it first came on TV, my sweet little elderly Mom accused me and Paul Sr. of being like twins! ROTFLMBO! (Good twin/Evil twin???)

I have a bike dreamed up that I would love to have those guys build for me. Being I'm into medieval lore somewhat, I drew up my designs along those lines...handlebars to look like crossed swords through the triple-tree...headlamp assembly from a Valkyrie Rune (since those look somewhat like a knight's helmet), Crusader shield shaped fuel tank with medieval graphics from the legends of King Arthur. Of course, the bike would be named Excalibur. The only part I haven't figured out is how to come up with $150K to have such a bike built. Ah, if I had only been born rich or good-looking, but I missed both times, darn it! :D

For now, my Iron Horse will have to do...and it does quite well. I have to get all my garbage finished so I can take it out on a good long drive before my time off from work is up.
 
Nice bikes guys,I took a Honda Hornet 900 I think they call them the 918 hornet in the states for a test run a few days back, more suited to our narrow winding switchback roads than a H/D and it was a blast,and I had a look at the 2300 cc Rocket 3 inline :eek: Hell you would have to be as big as Rougie or Tim just to keep it upright :D
