Let me introduce myself as oldwarrior, you can call me OW.
I have been riding since my brother stuck me on his 1957 Panhead and said ride it at the age of 12 (I'm now 61)
Haven't looked back since, though I have gone through some down time as I'm sure some of you have.
Anyway after a 7 year dry spell and raising the kids into adults I have acquired a 1995 FLHT (I had a 1995 FLHT I bought new in 1995 but had to give it up)
Anywho hello to all of you.

He he the spell checker hates anywho. LOL !
Also could someone point me in the right direction about upgrading the stereo on my FLHT, I have some ideas and have done a lot of research, and I would like to throw them out there in the right forum.
Thanks in advance.
I found the right forum going to post there.

Welcome to the board, OW.

Been riding a while myself - since 1970.

Spell checkers are of the debil. They hate that word too.

oldwarrior · « **Reply #17 on:** April 05, 2007, 02:02:01 AM »

Wow ! Thanks all for the warm welcome, I'll have a pic up of my bike after the chrome top rocker boxes come in, all that will be left then is to get the primary chromed (I have an extra primary).
I found the extra primary on ebay.
Tell ya what I can do tho, below is a link to pictures of it I took right after I brought it home.
The seat has been changed back to stock, Vance & Hines True-Duals with the Oval mufflers and chrome goodies have been installed, I'll have to update the pictures when I get done with it.
1995 FLHT 71,000 + miles. http://www.oldwarrior2001.org/hd1.html
Looking at those pictures just now makes me want to go out to the garage and hug it.

I also work the second shift 3 to 11 pm est time so my replies are somewhat delayed.

Welcome to the jungle OW. Looks like you're finding your way around here just fine.

Lots of info for those needed/wanted upgrades here.

SilverDawg · « **Reply #19 on:** April 06, 2007, 10:16:49 AM »

Welcome OW,

I am a Buckeye by birth. Grew up in Sprinfield, OH and left after college in 1982. Still have lots of family and friends in the state, but I do not get back too often.

What part of the state do you hang your hat in?

Best of luck on this site. Lots of great info here.

oldwarrior · « **Reply #20 on:** April 06, 2007, 10:43:12 AM »

I was born and raised in Springfield,O

, I now live in Marysville,O.
I graduated from Springfield North in 1965, the late 50's and early 60's were a magical time to have grown up.

What a long strange trip it's been........

SilverDawg · « **Reply #21 on:** April 06, 2007, 10:58:18 AM »

1965 had to be one of the first graduating classes for North.

I too am a Panther!!! Class of 1978. All 3 of my brothers also graduated there as well. I think it was 1970, 1972 and 1974 if my memory still serves me.

I think they are now building one high school for the whole city. I think North will be torn down.

oldwarrior · « **Reply #22 on:** April 06, 2007, 11:08:57 AM »

Yes I went to North High shortly after it was built, one high school for the whole city that should be interesting, lets really burn that gasoline up for the buses. LOL !
Wonder what they are going to do with the Veterans memorial at North High for the alumni of North High that lost heir lives overseas, if they are going to tear North High down.
I'll have to check into that.
I hope it stays where it is, I make a journey to it every time I visit my Mom and Dad at Ferncliff Cemetery.

SilverDawg · « **Reply #23 on:** April 06, 2007, 11:23:18 AM »

I'm sure they will either keep it there or move it to the new school.

I may make it back to Springfield this year. My dad has the big "C" and at 83, I need to spend as much time as I can there. I also just recently found out that one of the guys that owns the Harley store in Springfield graduated the same year I did. Brian Cubbage is his name. One member here told of a not so good experience he had there. I'll definitley check it out once I get back there.

Stay in touch. I may need a riding partner when I go back for a visit.

oldwarrior · « **Reply #24 on:** April 06, 2007, 11:37:34 AM »

If you do email me, heck I'll take off work for a ride.

Yep I saw that thread, I was around to see that shop go through it's changes, I really don't care for it's location now, I had a heck of a time finding the present location the first time I went there.
I'm off for some quality time with my dog Luke and then a nap before work, I have to leave a little early to go to C & A Harley outside of Plain City (been dealing with them for years), I have parts coming in today.
