Hello
I just wanted to finally introduce myself, I have been lurking for about a year now reading and researching. I was kicking around the idea of buying a bike and learning to ride last year when I walked into my local HD dealership and fell in love with the Nightster. So I went home jumped online, that’s when I found this site.
Fast forward to now, I took the MSF basic rider course last weekend that was my very first time every on a motorcycle. About half way through the first day on the range I was questioning if I really wanted to ride. But half way through the second day on the range, I knew this was something I wanted to pursue. I finished the course, passed the final evaluation test only messing up one time on final evaluation. The right hand turn got me I clipped the inside cone on exit. The instructor told me If I would have leaned more I would have missed it completely (I still need some work on my right hand turns).
And finally, I signed the papers on my first bike a slightly used silver & black 2008 Nightster Tuesday, I am picking her up this Saturday.
I look forward to meeting some of you and continuing to learn more about my new bike.
FYI my screen name comes form my other habit
