New fella here. My name is Ken. I rode for my first time in 1972 when I was 20 years old. I rode a Honda 305cc Super hawk from San Francisco, Ca to Collinston, La. The bike had the front forks extended and brazed so no front suspension the back fender was cut to look like a Sportster and it had a peanut tank that would only go 60 miles. the seat was a piece upholstered plywood that sat directly on the battery (why I broke down in Paris Texas). Needless to say It was a white knuckle experience that lasted for five days. Well the bike was sold and I am convinced it is why I have back problems to this day. So fast forward. The wife and I are taking a Sunday afternoon ride to the Indian reservation to get gas one afternoon and two bikes go by. She looks over at me and says "I cant believe I am going to say this, but I want you to buy a bike" Well!!!!!! five days later I am the proud owner of a 2006 FLHPI with only 17k on it and in near perfect condition.
I found this forum while looking for more info on the police special and wound up here.
That's my story and I'm sticking to it:beer:
