Title: California Newbie
Post by: Hoggin_it on August 18, 2019, 02:47:50 AM: Hello All,

Been lurking here while I searched for a bike and now feel worthy to join since I now own one.

Just picked up a 2016 FLHTKSE in red for $25k OTD ($22.8k cash price). It was advertised as having the 110 but when I flew down to test ride it, I noticed it has the 117 which was installed when originally purchased. Rode it home 350 miles that day. Completely different experience than my ‘07 FLHX.

JCZ, NorCal East Bay.

Welcome!

I'm in Sunnyvale. We should go for a ride. I can introduce you to AK (Andy), Trapperdog (Roger), and Danny. You're close to the BEST member to know, hd-dude (Jim). He owns Metal Dragon in Hayward. He's the one to go to for everything and anything, and you get a 15% discount for being a site member. He's even a forum moderator. Everything from service, tires, to a complete rebuild, he can do it all. I'm getting a rear tire from him on the 31st.

Let us know where you would like to ride. We can go to the coast where it's cooler, or up in the Sierras. Or even to the city to eat seafood or Chinese food.

Mark

JCZ, NorCal East Bay.

You're a lucky guy. Jim at Metal Dragon in Hayward is the go to for the Nor Cal CVO owners. You'll also meet many other members of this forum there at his shop. Jim is also one of the moderators here on this forum.

I'm in Indiana right now but I'll be back in the area in the bay area early Sept.

Thanks for the invite. Unfortunately, work travel will prevent me from attending this year.
