Hi I'm a new Harley owner, but I have been Riding and Racing (Road and Motocross) for 30 years. I was was out riding my Honda CBR 954 about 6 weeks ago, when I passed Destination Harley in Tacoma. There were about 50 or so bikes and riders in front of the store, they were just hanging out listening to a live band. So I stopped and checked it out.
Before I new what happened I was test riding bikes, I couldn't get over how cool it felt. I mean I currently race a GSXR 1000 Suzuki supposedly the ultimate in Motorcycle Technology, the thing will hit 180 MPH on the straight at Pacific Raceway. But I had forgotten what it's like to just RIDE and have fun on a beautiful simple Bike. I ended up buying a 09 Super Glide, (I still Want a Bike to go quickly down a Twisty road). I just love riding this bike, I feel like a kid again every time I swing my leg over it.
