Yeah, I have been noticing that on here. I could really care less what everyone else has as long as they sound good cause I like the way they look. Been hearing good and bad things about bike week, but will most likely check it out anyway as I won't be in AZ long before I PCS to VA. Gotta cram all the fun I can into the time frame I'm working with.
Check out the Big Radius 2:1, I think they look BA and should be better performance. I have yet to see them on any bike in person. Can't figure out why they are not more popular than the Big Radius 2:2. Maybe they sound like ****?

I took my class at Chesters HD in Mesa. I really liked the instructors.

I didn't particularly like the look of the 2 into 1 either. I think I will go ahead with the 2 into 2. Thanks for the info though.

I hope you are REALLY into the bike rally scene. I personally thought the one day I spent there was OK... but I wouldn't want to ride much farther than across town just for that.
Of course, that being said, I'm flying to Florida in April, and apparantly will be attending a rally there, so what to I know!!

We intentionally picked a smaller rally out here instead of Bike week or Biketoberfest to leave more time for riding but still get a little party in. Leesburg is a lot of fun as long as you go when it is not too crowded. They close down Main street and only let bikes in town. It will be a great time but for most of the week we plan on riding. I promise you will get a good taste of the Florida back roads. Riding along the coast with a nice sandy beach by your side will definatly be a change of scenery for you. I'm looking forward to it.

If you are planning on taking Riders Edge at one of the dealerships, you may want to try to sign up now. March should be fairly easy to get into, but I took a class in April, and had to wait 3 weeks from when I signed up. Sign up before you get here, so you can take the class early and be ready to ride sooner.

I'm not really a rookie to riding. My pops has several Guzzi 1000's for his business and I rode for him for a couple years. I am however a rookie to having this fine piece of machinery that is a Fatboy. The only thing that is going to make it look any better is to have me riding it.....let me rephrase that, having US riding it.

Donna,
We intentionally picked a smaller rally out here instead of Bike week or Biketoberfest to leave more time for riding but still get a little party in. Leesburg is a lot of fun as long as you go when it is not too crowded. They close down Main street and only let bikes in town. It will be a great time but for most of the week we plan on riding.
