I joined this forum when I was still lookin for a HD. Just wanted to say thanks to everybody for all your help. Just gettin started in the Harley world but tryin to learn all I can. Its a alot different then the old crotch rockets I'm used to. But like I said, still tryin to learn. Eventually I'll be able to post some advice to questions I see on here but right now all I know for sure is welding. So if you gotta question bout that gimme a holler. Thanks again for everything!

Stick with it and ride safe! What did you end up getting?

 

Be safe and there are lots of folks here with good and well not so good advice hehehe..

Welder Ay........Just got done welding up 14 older steel docks for the resort,had ta weld some older Galvinized parts to steel on a couple grrrrrr....Never liked welding Galv cough cough....Should of used the old stick on them but Miged it all....

 

Ended up gettin an 03 FLHRCI anniv. ed. with wide white walls, workin on some pics, havin trouble downloadin em.

 

Yeah never been a fan of galv... wont weld it unless I have to... Its worth the cost to me to get some mild steel and paint it or use stainless or aluminum... lol pretty much whatever I can do to avoid those little white flies

 

1st off....Sounds like a nice ride ya got.....


I tried ta talk the owner into makeing new/steel braces but said he wanted to use them so cough cough hold my breath I went.....

 

Good for you......enjoy! As to advice on here. Some guys you will learn to take as gospel, some you will always get a 2nd or 10th opinion and watch out for the "hot topics." The last will have you believing all HD's are going to explode immediately if you don't __________ (fill in the blank).

 

Ugh, I work offshore, and I can't stand it when they fire up and start welding galv...
