Greetings from the far west burbs of the "Windy City". I recently purchased a 2008 XL1200 C and I'm having a bad case of P.M.S. (Parked Motorcycle Syndrome)!

You have a great site, and I look forward to many postings!

Cheers,

Will

Hello Will from Pittsburgh and welcome to the forum. PMS, I like it. For the record a Sporty is not a hog. Hog refers to the big fat Harleys. Hmmm....

This is very impressive, greatings from the good old USA, and from around the world too! Harley's/Sportster's seem to make a kind of a United Nations.

Now the last time I was in England a "friend" took me out for the local fare, "Jellied Eels". I still have nightmares over it! :laugh

Trace,

In the land of Oz they never get PMS since the weather is alway's great!! :chtwo

Or at least that is what I was once told, many years ago B.C. (Before Connie/wifes name), I dated a "Shelia" from Sydney who told me the weather was alway's great. She was alway's "nous" and "fairdinkum", so I never doubted what she said.

Hoo Roo,

Will

I'm in the far west burbs of Chicago, Naperville. I'm closer to new Lennox where your Mum lives (20 miles), but I used to teach near where you Pop lives (Calumet Park) years ago.

Sound to me it's time for a road trip to Honduras. All I have to do is find a real comfortable seat, and convince the wife that I'm only going out to get good cigars!! :laugh

Welcome from Houston Tx, I was born in Glencoe if you know where that is....enjoying the breeze from the lake effect.....not. I was out riding because it is 78 degrees although cloudy. Had to log some time in the saddle before the game.
