Just got my first street bike back in October. My brother owns a used car lot and a guy comes in looking for a used car. They get to talking and he tells him he's gotta a couple of cars and a old motorcycle. He being the horse trader that he is asks first about the cars (jeep and a taurus) and then kind of pokes around what he has for a bike. Has a 1984 Harley FXRS that he bought new. He tells him "the scrap guys only want to give me a 100 since it doesn't weigh anything". Brother says "i'll give ya 200" . I ended up trading my '83 Turbo Thunderbird for it. Had to have the tank lined and the carb rebuilt, but have put about 700 miles on it this year already. Overall a nice looking well preserved stock bike. Thanks for the welcome mat, i'm sure there will be some dumb questions by me so please be patient.

Jeeze man...just down the street. We should catch up sometime for a ride with a few other locals on here. Maybe meet up at Kimballs in Jaffrey or something.
