Never say Never.......

[MadDuck]

Well I always said I would never buy or own a Harley - one should never say never :oi-grr:

Hmmm....I pick her up this week and cant wait. :woohoo: An XLSportster.

No doubt I will be asking a lot of stoopid questions over the next few weeks (possibly months) so be easy on me you cruiser guys!

Why did I buy?

Well I been looking for a few months on and off but getting anything I can reach the ground on without making a lot of mods is a bit tough.

I am a slow sprots bike rider but seem to have recently received a few too many tickets on the roads.

[FROSTY]

Yea but duck girl it is one sayxy lookin sporty.
The way the engine jumps on startup gives ya the shits though

[twotyred]

odd how people think that owning a harley will somehow stop them getting tickets...

Odd ...I didnt actually say it would stop me getting tickets. But thanks for that :scooter:

[crashe]

Welcome to the cruiser side of life......

So a HOG huh...... well next you have to buy the vest and the bandana... and the boots to match...... then join the HOG club...... yep a whole new world when one either owns a HOG or a cruiser....

Look forward to seeing the picture......

As long as you're having good safe fun and you got a smile on your dial, who gives a raspberry?

You're accountable to no one for what makes you happy.

Post some pics soon though! :yes:

I dont think So!!!!

[Waylander]

I used to say I'd never ride a sportsbike or own a Harley, yet here I am seriously looking at a Buell....

Good onya for giving it a go. Cruisers are just as much fun at slower speeds as sportbikes are at fast when you know how to use them.

Anyone with the ability to stand up and say "I was wrong" gets my vote. :niceone:

Have fun and stay safe!

[Edbear]

You know the rules, Ducky! Pics please!:Punk:


And as for buying a Harley? I'd love a 1200 Sporty! Twin disc model of course!:innocent:

[Mrs Busa Pete]

That's great looking forward to seeing you out there. Not to mention going for rides with you.:whocares: what other's think so long as you are happy that is all that matters. and besides it's a pretty sexy bike to me.

If its got two wheels its a bike in my eyes, so good choice girl.

I see on this page http://www.bikez.com/motorcycles/harley-davidson_xl1200l_sportster_low_2007.php they are saying the L version has a seat height of 711mm and they talk of "adjustable" so can you raise and lower the rider's seat? Even at 711mm I can see why you chose this.

What colour you getting?

[yungatart]

Woohoo! You go girl!
A niiiiiice choice.....when can we see some piccies of your new ride?

[ratusratus]

Can we expect to see the Harley at a track day then?

[MadDuck]

Pete and you wont want to TEC behind me anymore :rolleyes:


What colour you getting?

Its predominantly white. A bit of a worry given my lack of enthusiasm to clean.

I can handle his type :cool:


Can we expect to see the Harley at a track day then?

Teah will bring it to Taupo. Will try and sweet talk Frosty to letting me out end of day or summit when track is clear....can only lean on the left handers though :msn-wink:


To everyone else - Pictures will be forthcoming on arrival :banana:

[Macktheknife]
