Yup, I knew it! You've got deep pockets. :smt005 :smt005 I was going to buy a Harley myself but ended up using that cash on a down payment to purchase my first home.

Very nice.  My wife and I were in a Harley shop the other day to get her some new boots.  All I was allowed to do was drool.  They have some nice bikes out.

Thanks Atavuss , I got hit by a car 3 years ago on the freeway on my Ninja and I tell you it hurts hitting that pavement at 70 mph. 6 years ago I highsided on my yamaha riding through palomar mountain and resulted in broken ankle, leg and concussion and last year totalled my Honda CBR at het 9 after leaving alices at four corners. When I lost the front for to much throttle and was hit by incoming car. So my wife thinks Harley will be safer, but now when I want speed I take it to the track . See you on the road

wtg nice ride. try taking long hauls before making any changes. I have road king I bought used and it is loud, which for around town not to bad.  For highway it really grates on you.  Something else I woul dhighly recommend for every rider is a copy of Northern California Destination Highways.  This book ranks the top 100 motorcycle roads in Nor Cal.  Its about $35.00 and worth every penny of it.  We have had our copy for 4 years and we use almost everytime we go out.  5 stars on that!

Hit me up if you want to ride the Peninsula.  I live in San Mateo and have done a lot of nice roads back here.  The ride to Mt. Hamilton is a good one, just watch for wildlife.  I damn near had a flock of turkeys fly into me last time I was out there.

Nice bike ginoltk , you should be able to stay out of trouble with your Harley as far a racing goes , most everything on two wheels is faster . That's OK though , none look or sound better ! Thought about a RoadKing but as the Wife shows no interest in  riding I'll just keep my Deuce , besides at 56 yo I'm too young for a " Geezerglide ". Hmmm? A NCKA  ride , sounds interesting when it gets a wee bit warmer .

Are you talking about Mines Road?
