robsteeler that's way too cool. your first bike and it's a big twin touring harley fricken davidson. man, that's great. with it being an 89 it's an evolution motor too. very neat. a very reliable motor too. i'm happy for you, your first thread/post also. remember, it's required that you get up at 2 in the morning and go out in the garage to make sure it's real and not just a dream. ride safe, and i'm sure we're all happy for you.

Thanks, I'm glad to finally get a scoot!
Congrats on the new bike. Welcome to the forums as well. Great place with lots of good info.

Congrats on the new ride. You can the emblems at the dealer probably, or just get the part number and order from one of the 20% discount dealers online.

Thanks guys, I'm cleaning out it's home(garage) now. I will post some pics as soon as I can find my camera. It's just awesome. I'm not a fan of the S&S carb, it runs a little rough. I might try another option. It's also nice to go for a ride by myself since, "as a newer rider I just don't feel safe with you on the bike honey."
