Hello from the Mini Apple!
« on: September 19, 2008, 07:53:57 PM »

Minneapolis Minnesota...   Get it? :D

First of all, I have to say this site is AWESOME.  I've learned a lot in a short amount of time looking around here.  Reads like there a lot of great folks here.  I'm glad I found you guys.  But, enough about you. ;)

About me (and my two wheelers): 

I picked up a new 2008 FLHTCUSE3 of Canyon Copper color on July 2 2008 and love it.  I had a problem flat footing it so dropped the rear 1" and replaced seat with "reach".  Much better now.  I got my first CVO in 2002 - an FXDWG3 blue.  I really love that one.  It fits me just right.  I still have it.  It's a little limited on storage space (what you have in your pockets) so I went for the Ultra.  There's plenty of room for stuff on that one.  I also have a 1995 Sportster that I converted from 883 to 1200cc myself.  The dog rides with me on that.  Also, a 1977 BMW R100/7 and a 1968 Triumph Daytona.  SOMEBODY STOP ME!  I don't have a monetary control administrator any more (wife) so I spend my money in ways that could be considered crrrazy.  I've been riding for over 40 years, I started at 11, and have enjoyed every minute.  Well enough about me.  Ride alert.  Be safe.

Welcome from another Minneapolitanite! Impressive stable!  Got a FXDWG@ a few months ago so we should get together and glide! Which dealer are you closest to?

Thank you Screamin.  Impressive map.  I have a similar one but involved flying and working. 
Bayoubiker.  Indeed, let them roll.  I don't speak LA french or France french or Canadian french - I had to Google it.  I hope I got the translation right and thanks.
Buy Early - I would like that.  I'm closest to Twin Cities but have bought bikes from St. Paul and Delano.  Any reason to ride is good for me.  Distance is a minor consideration.
