New member/rider from Mississippi
Wanted to swing by and introduce myself. I have always wanted a bike and finally was able to obtain one. I traded an old firebird I never drove for a 96 sportster 883 with the 1200 SE conversion. A few rust spots and some minor fixes and she will shine like new. Took her on a lengthy trip this weekend and she did fine. Was changing oil today and noticed a drip coming from primary area so decided to tighten the nut assembly and guess what broke? So now I have to replace the clutch cable but I'm loving every minute of it. Look forward to getting to know some of you guys. By trade, I'm a lineman for my local power company. I have a wonderful family and 4 beautiful children, 3 of which are my step children. And yes, my wife's ex husband and me are good friends. Hell he actually rode with me on our trip this weekend. Good relationship for our kids, family and ourselves. I'm a God fearing man that loves to raise a little hell from time to time, but at the end of the day I will help anyone in need. I was raised here in the south and have morals and take pride in everything I say and do. Getting this bike was a dream come true, especially since I wanted an older model, as in 90's. The next thing on my list is an 60-70 model Vet, but for now I'm happy with this fine machine and the joy and freedom I get riding with the wind hitting my face.
