Hey Jarvid / guys ..yeah It took a little getting used to, the riding style is very aggressive, for sure I lost the comfort of the old baby, but I'm loving riding this one now, the power is crisp and the gear change precise and the fat tyre on the back is amazing around roundabouts..lol

One suggestion, get one of those tube rego sticker holders that hang under your number plate, that sticker looks a bit ugly where it is imo, apart from that I am jealous, what a beautiful lookin girl, if only they were more comfortable for a worn out old rider like me!

Wow, that's interesting, I would hope that my wife and daughters would never speak to me again if I ever bought a Harley.

I guess it's a training issue.
