Hello!  I am a new member to this forum and wanted to introduce myself.  I live in Warrenville, IL (Chicago western suburb) and have owned and ridden motorcycles for over 30 years, so I guess you can say I have been around for a while.  I have owned many brands of bikes but mainly Harley's for the last 20 years or so (all except for the occasional import dirt bike that is.)

Over this New Years holiday I traded in my 95th anniversary Road Glide for a 2001 black/charcoal/silver SE Road Glide and have recently discovered this forum.  It seems like a real good bunch of guys here and I am looking forward to hopefully meeting some of you in person.   Who all lives up this way?

Here is a picture of my bike still at the dealer where I bought it.  It is currently in their shop getting some warranty repairs done but will be delivered Tuesday.  Hopefully the weather will break (they're calling for snow again Wednesday-argh!)

Welcome from  California

 Your bike just happens to be (imo) one of the best screamin eagles I have ever seen, I always wanted one in that color

Thanks to everyone for the warm welcome!   :2vrolijk_21:

Marty-I agree with you about the bike-it is my favorite as well.  That's why I ended up buying it on impulse...my buddy who works at the dealer told me about it and I bought it two days later, mind you I wasn't even THINKING about a new scoot then as I was very happy with my current bike at the time!

It is sort of similar to the time I went to Jiffy Lube for an oil change in my van and came home with a new Ford pickup truck.  :nixweiss:

Wow, I am surprised by the volume of responses this board gets-what an awesome group! Thanks again to everyone for being so welcoming-I'm definitely looking forward to getting to know the good people here better. It should help take away some of the frustration of our crappy weather here for a while.  8)
