View Full Version : Newbee from Arizona
jprfolts 20th October 2006, 00:32 I saw a link over on hdforums which led me here. So I Figured I would introduce myself. I'm new to the Harley ownership world but not new to Harley's. My uncle has owned them since I can remember which is ultimately what led me to owning one.
I originally came to Arizona :flag_ariz back in 2001 from Western NY :flag_newy (Buffalo area) for a job and have been here since.
I recently picked up a 03 XLH883 off of a private seller for $5k with 6500 miles on it. It has a few mods from the previous owner. New seat, Pipes, bags, (really cheap/horrible) forward controls that need to be replaced.
I would post pics but the site limits that ability until after you have 15 posts total. Once I reach 15 I'll update this thread w/pics.

Casper 20th October 2006, 01:27 Welcome from your old haunts. I'm just across the ditch in the Niagara area! So how many minutes did it take you to stop missing the crappy winter weather up here? 2, 3 minutes? :D
jprfolts 20th October 2006, 01:35 Honestly... I miss actually fall and winter. Those are my two favorite seasons. I loved winter sports and the overall having 4 seasons experience. After that last storm last week all I could think about is how I wanted to go snowmobiling.
We have like 2 seasons here. Mild (40's) - Hot (100+) :(

jprfolts 26th May 2007, 03:33 Just washed and polished up a bit today so I felt the need to post a new pic.
Not much new to the bike. Just put on a dragtron II, rejetted carb, put the rear blinker/brake conversion module on and added my sissy bar. Still have to put on my new forward controls. I'll get around to it one of these days.
