Default New rider from Austin
I'm 34, and up until a month ago, I had a total of maybe 5 minutes on a bike. One day out of the blue, I told my wife that I wanted a motorcycle, and she said "OK". Not sure if she thought I was just talking out my *** or not.. But at that moment, my search began. Within 2 weeks, I took a riding class, got my license, and bought a 2010 Iron and couldn't be happier!

I would like to say thanks to the members on this forum for all the info and insight that made my bike decision a no-brainer...

Rubber side down folks!

Welcome fellow Texan. One word, ROT Rally. Bare breasts everywhere. Some of them you may not want to see so beware.
