Hello. Ben here. Just stumbled onto a 08 XL1200C from a military buddy that didn’t want to mess with it. Was sitting with fuel in it for 8 years. Got it on the road recently with new tank, fluids, fuel pump assembly, cleaned injectors and some other minor doodads. I’ve been enjoying it some, especially for the $1800 I have invested in it to date. It rides rough as all get out so I’m in the daunting search for the right solo saddle and suspension while also keeping it a budget street fighter. Been riding forever. Sport bikes, a few metric cruisers, dirt bikes etc. First Harley. I’m not the overly wanna be tough guy dramatically chewing gum, looking all around at the speed of sound and frowning at everyone. I’m happy riding my bikes that I’ve worked on and don’t mind smiling about it. I’m not new to forums either and I wrench on all my own stuff from head studs on a powerstroke to the Yamaha 200 on the boat. It’s my therapy. I get into scooters too. I ride and spend most of my time solo but I’ll ride with anybody on anything so long as they’re nice good people.

 

Hi CC69, GREAT to have u here man.


Be sure to come to the games section. We have a lot of fun there and get to know (and joke around) with each other.

Now, back to business.

There will be an initiation having to do with a greased pig, a rope, and some hot sauce a little later today.

We have a ton of stuff here, like an excellent mechanical and technical section, Harley-Davidson videos uploaded by our members, humor, gun enthusiast, road trips, a food section, dark side section, great vendors, classifieds, regional activity, and a lot, a lot more.

Now, for my regular welcome to you...

G'day mate,

welcome to HDF.

I will be your tour guide. Be sure to read the manual before posting ok mate?

Or we will have discipline you and if you don't "get it" we will need to discipline you biker style.

Here is a gift for you… LOL! “I so funi!”


Now let’s get serious for your orientation. Go down the hall on your left to the 1st room. No, wait. The 1st room on your right. That is where the commissary is.

Then you will see doors marked for the mortuary, skeet shooting, a room where we make fun of In-Jun bikes, and of course we have a ahh, umm, oh yeah a across the hall.

We had a BOMB MAKING room but, well, ahhhhh, 1 of the guys just didn't understand Blasting Caps very well so..... you know.

We have our own pub .

There are several places where you can familiarize your self with the .

So don't be a wall flower watching others . Get involved.

See you around mate. I am going to the commissary now.


You are in the “New Members Area” where you can introduce yourself and let us know what Harley Davidson bike(s) (if any) you ride/own.

If you have questions about engines, exhaust systems, audio issues, etc… then:

1) Please go to the upper corner and Roll Over “Forums”

2) Then come down to and Roll Over “Harley Davidson Tech & Mechanical Forum”

3) Then come down to the section that would be most appropriate for your question like Audio Systems, Engine Mechanical Topics, Exhaust System Topics, etc… and CLICK on the topic you have a question about.

You will find the knowledge here is EXCELLENT and these here mates are willing to help you in any way they can. ‘juss be careful. There are some “Trolls”, so I suggest just ignoring them ‘ole farts.

See you around HDF. Come often, we have a humor thread, game thread, and a LOT of other stuff.

Have A Great Day Mate,
