Welcome to the forum. Despite what your Commander-in-Chief is telling the world, thank you for keeping America the greatest country in the world.

That clinches it, you are from here and if you ever are close you are welcome to stop by. We'll go to The Bunker and hoist a couple. Stay safe.

I was hoping for something similar, not the crazy blue sparkle denim that they ended up coming with (black ice denim), so i guess im gonna have to join the flat black masses. No offense I do love the black denim dont get me wrong, im just gonna have to find some other ways to make my scoot unique i guess!

btw JakeinIraq what area you in? I was south of bdad around iskandarya and babylon from sept 2006 untill thanksgiving 2007
Hey Jake, I sent you a Private Message.

Maybe not that small. JakeInIraq and I were supposed to meet up in VBC/Baghdad somewhere but we never got our schedules in sync.

Lots of current military guys in this forum. Ya never know when they'll grab one of us again and send him your way!

I just reserved myself a 2010 Fat Bob and can't wait till next year when I will finally get a chance to throw a leg over her. Till then ill just keep adding to the parts catalog that is my future mod list, browse through the under 20 buck idea section (ive already made it through about 35 pages as a lurker) and get some knowlege from and maybe share some stories with you good people, thanks for your time,
Jake

Sup bro! I just got back from Bagram about 28 days ago. Former Marine and currently AF reservist here now. Keep your head down and on a swivel especially outside the wire. Thanks for your service! Huaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
