Hi Everybody,
I've been hanging around the site for quite awhile now, and finally decided I should take the time to introduce myself. My wife and I are on our third Harley and this time it's an FLHRSE3. We started out in '98 with a new Wide Glide, and moved up to a new Road King Classic in '05. We finally made the leap to the Screamin' Eagle in late '06.
We would like to do a little (OK a LOT!) of work on the motor, but so far we've been using the engine warranty on a regular basis. Once the MoCo gets everything working reliably though we plan to do something along the lines of the work Hoist is doing with his.
Or maybe we'll just go for it without the warranty...
I work out of state so I don't have much time to post, but I try to jump in where I can -especially if I think I can help someone. This site has been a great source of information and I would like to help by doing my part. Since I'm out of town so much we usually ride as much as possible on the weekends, but now that it's winter here in Southern Oregon the riding has slowed down a little. We do plan to take the bike out tomorrow for our HOG Chapter's annual Polar Bear Run. Glad we have our heated gear!
When I'm out of town (at work) I usually check the CVO site every day at lunch time. It helps me keep my sanity!
The subject line for this post gives a little bit of a hint for the direction our bike work is headed. We're in the process of adding hard bags -since our bike came with two little leather clad "glove boxes" instead of real saddlebags!
And we just acquired a King TourPak that we're getting ready to have painted as well. The jury is still out on a fairing and lowers, but I'm working on Management (wife) approval for some of those things as well. Not sure if I'm a fairing kind of guy yet or not though...
Guess that's probably already more than anyone wants to know. See you all around the site!
