Hi all
Hi all. Well after 20yrs of riding Jap bikes I spent two hours test riding different types Harleys just so I could take the piss.(Sorry if that upsets a few) Three weeks later my V Max was on Ebay and after only one month with my new Fatboy, it has convinced me that I’ve wasted twenty biking years. Age 43 (M) Location:- Crawley Down, Sussex.
Anyway time to finish and wait the slagging off for once being an ‘anti Harley’ person. But hey!, we all make mistakes.

Re: Hi all
No slagging (hopefully ;) ) here. Welcome to the forum, hopefully you'll come along to one or two of our Club nights nights and maybe even join.

More info here and here

Re: Hi all
Hey Scarrow;

Welcome to the forum, and there's certainly no reason to expect anyone to engage in any kind of slagging off. To do such with a newbie would never cross the mind of anyone on this forum! ;)


































We'll give you a little time to settle in first.

Re: Hi all
Hi Scarecrow,

Welcome from another newbie your not that far down the road from me I'm at the foot (almost of Box Hill). If I can help out with anything then give me a shout. I still have friends in the trade as I worked for Surrey HD for 6 1/2 yrs in parts.

Once again welcome to the madhouse.


Pete
