Dont know if anyone remembers or not last year but I just had nothing but problems with my old honda so 3 weeks ago I went into the local dealer just to browse around and wish. Well I ended up staying and chatting with the guys for a good long time and a couple of days ago I picked up my new xl883 custom. Its my first harley so im kinda stoked a bit. Its even painted to match my car(yeah I know, kinda wierd) Anyway, I just had to share because I cant wait to get out and cruise. Did I make a good choice?

I've heard that the 883 is the better bike to get between that and I want to say the 1200 (I don't know harleys). Mainly because if you want you can get teh dealer to do the bore kit to the 1200, have essentially the same bike and still be saving money.

But yeah, any bike that isn't a basket case is good.

Somehow it makes sense to me that people with those crappy but pimped out cars would need a harley...

Christian group? I'm sorry, but I must have missed that last sermon where Jesus said that all civics needed rims and a huge spoiler. Maybe your group could enlighten me? Maybe you should start with basic spelling of english before, cause I don't know if they sell a whigga translator.

Sorry, I know I'm being a dick...but sometimes I just can't help it.

LoL, yeah you are.

I loved my corvettes. Nothing was as much fun as driving or restoring those puppies. At the same time, I had a wicked good time putting neon lights, sound systems, ground effects, turbos etc in hondas. Not anything that I owned but it was still fun to dick around with.

Nice bike!

The neon lights alone add 15bhp.

One of those things we all do when we're young, great for the photobook in the "what was I thinking!" section.

Wait till I put the neon accent lights on the bike, the bhp's add up so much faster on the scoot :tomato:

Actually, you could help it, if you really tried. There's no reason to chime in only to slam on somebody else's ride(s).

Congratulations on your new bike, SympleTruth316 - enjoy.

Cheers,
