    Gone to the Dark Side

    Hi guys.Happy to report that after wanting a harley for years but never getting one because of various circumstances I have bitten the bullet and am now the proud owner of a 100th Anniversary FXD.
    I did 700 km on the day I picked it up and have probably covered close to 2k km in the first two weeks.Fair to say I love it.Click image for larger version.  Name: Therapy 005.jpg  Views: 129  Size: 385.4 KB  ID: 320051
    Never too old to Rock n Roll.

    Well done, enjoy! (and you will!)

    The plus of owning a Harley is: it's the best bait to get morons, drongos wannabe funny guys and utter fuck-wits going...

    You're not suggesting that you'd find morons, drongos, wannabe funny guys and utter fuck-wits on this forum?
