Finally back in the saddle
« on: April 16, 2012, 07:41:04 PM »
Well after a few hard years of the company I worked for shutting down a shattered ankle and having to sell my 08 SERK I'm the proud owner of a 2012 Black/Slate CVO StreetGlide. Went for my first ride this weekend, only about 200 miles, but really am impressed with this bike.

I would like the thank people on this forum for the parts I had bought for whenever I got a new bike. Passenger floorboards  off of a CVO Ultra and short arm highway peg mounts both purchased here.

The bike itself was purchased used with 1600 miles on it in perfect condition from a member here. What an excellent person to deal with. He can post his name if he likes.  Thank you Sir.

Lastly to the members helping me with my custom seat I want to thank you for all the effort you are putting out for my benefit.

This is a great collection of people and I am proud to be a part of it. I hope to be able to pass along the help and kindness I have received from the people on this site

I know I am one of the newer members and I hope to be included on this site for a long time but reflecting on your post bubbleheads has caused me to pause and say thank you to everyone on this site for all your help and kindness.  I have also made many friends that I am thankful for.  :P. I'm glad to see you back in the saddle and I wish you many happy miles on your new Street Glide.

GOOD FOR YOU, MIKE! CONGRATS! I trust you made it back from FL with the bike on the trailer safe and sound, with no dings or anything.

Can't WAIT to see it, bro! Ride it over to the house anytime this week if you want. I'm just here tethered to the Mac all week... on MEGA-BORING extended conference calls and LiveMeetings. UGGGGH. Would love to have you come visit. I haven't seen a Slate in person yet, and would welcome the break!

FAST380... If Mike shows up here anytime soon, I'll take ton o' pics and post 'em for him here!  :2vrolijk_21:

OK Mike. I am supposed to meet some friends in Jasper at 6:30 PM on Friday for a trip up to the Blue Ridge Parkway and Gatlinburg, but it may get rained out... forecast not looking so good right now.

Congrats on the new bike. We'll have to get together with Ken to do a triple play photo shoot with all three bikes.   :2vrolijk_21:
