All the Coronavirus crap has me at home and online more.  Thinking of a new place to read a little and realized it was finally time made a login here.

I'm Don from a place called Webb City in SW Missouri.  Three bikes.  99 FXR2, 2000 CVO Road Glide and a 2002 CVO Road King.  They're all red.  They are also all stock (that last part is a lie).

A good friend of mine (who regularly steals my wifi) has been a vocal proponent of the benefits of hanging here a bit.  So...  I'll start reading too.  Hello everyone.

Ignorance is bliss, and accuracy expensive. How much of either can you afford?

Cool.  I did my anti-social-distancing through Adrian on an afternoon ride a couple weeks ago.

Thank you very much.  Did a little reading earlier today.  Saw some of the tech and the more social side of things.  Looking forward to seeing more and participating a little.

Hey Don, I'm just a parts changer, and being a DIY'er I need all the help I can get and then some so I try and absorb what I can here.

I've seen pictures and descriptions of your handy work and you'll be a contributer for sure.

Maybe we can share the road someday.

Enjoy

Hey Phil !  A familiar person!  There's a fair bit of back material worth reading here.  I ain't got caught up yet.  Then again, probably won't!

Welcome Brother, Olathe, kansas here. I was anti social before it was cool.
I've never met anyone to dumb to get it but many to smart.

I understand.  Just returned from an anti-social-distancing ride.  Couple of hours to clear the head on the Road King.  No people.  No weirdness.  No radio. No news.  Nothing but a tank of gas.  I'm as ready as I'm going to be for the rest of the day.

Hey!  Another that's not a stranger!  Have had a few private messages from some of the gang from the other site too.  I assumed there was some cross pollination but hadn't considered how much. 

It's the Road Glide's turn today.  Going the 150 mile round trip to the dealer in NW Arkansas to pick up a pair of gaskets that are in stock here in town.  Just because the other dealer is farther away :chop: .

Isn't that the way of riding, a little longer way around just to ride that much more?

That reminded me of a conversation with an old girlfriend.  Like 10-12 years ago.  She was on the back seat as three bikes headed out together for a ride to dinner someplace an hour or so away.  She leaned forward to say how good it was riding together; because three bikes together would get three times the gas mileage of one by itself with us all going to the same place.

Sometimes it's better to just agree. 

I hadn't figured that out yet.
