Title: New CVO owner from Tulsa, OK
Post by: Rab986 on March 04, 2017, 12:28:30 PM
Hey guys, Proud new to me owner of an 07 FXSTSSE which I am absolutely IN LOVE with.

I have been riding on gas powered 2 wheels since I was 5yo, racing motorcross, supermoto, sportbikes and BMWCCA closed course until the ripe old age of 32. I have since started calming down when I bought my first Hayabusa in 2003 for comfort (I know right) and shortly afterwards picked up a wrecked HD bagger to build, flip and make some cash only... because I wasn't going to be caught dead on one of the pieces of junk.

Long story short I rode that POS bagger for 10 years and have owned a handful of HD and customs as well since, and now feel like this was my roots all along (I guess I was adopted by Japanese bikes when I was young).

So... here I am, 5 days ago I picked up this little 07 SE Springer and it is by far my favorite of the bunch. The transformations have already begun with more to come. I am about to get it out and ride till I find a good watering hole to camp out at for a while and then I will snap a few pics to post up later this weekend.

Peace Brothers, keep it upright
-Steve

Ok... I promised a couple pics but never could find a place to park it that looked could AND let it sit long enough to snap a couple pics, (I'm ate up with it!! :P)
I just got done putting new S&S standard adjustable pushrods along with a set of the Hylift Johnsons Direct Shot Slow Bleeds in it so there are greasy paw prints all over it still. ::)

Welcome to the best forum on the Internet for CVO owners, and congratulations on your "new" Harley; coming to you from the clear lakes and the twisty mountain roads of north Arkansas!

After you get settled on the forum, I hope you'll check out the threads about our CVO Harley Get-Togethers (GTG's) in the Events Section.  We always have a great time at these events, and it's an excellent way to put faces with forum names, but more importantly - to make new friends and riding buddies!  Plus it's always cool to see what the other owners are doing to their bikes.

If you're interested, follow these leads to find out more information about our Eureka Springs early June 2017 Get-Together, or PM me and I'll be happy to tell you more about it:

We currently have around 75 bikes and 120 people signed up for this event and expect more to join us in the coming months, so consider making your reservations soon!  We are getting a group discount for this event, and the hotel is perfect for our needs and the scenery and roads will be a blast!

We're glad to have you with us!
