Hello all,

We recently took delivery on two (count 'em) bikes in Western PA:

An '08 XL1200C (for her) ... we have replaced the seat with a mustang solo seat with backrest (I forget the exact model) and put on a memphis shades windscreen. We're looking to add the color matched hard bags in the near future.

An '08 XB12X (for him) ... no mods so far but the Buell hard cases are on order. Will probably add a laminar lip or windscreen (cal sci or parabellum) and a heat shield from special ops.

Both bikes are great fun. The Buell does service as a commuter when the weather permits. We love the thunderstorm engine ... can't wait to see what it can do after break-in is done!

Welcome SM, how far western, I grew up near Hookstown in Beaver County about 3 miles from where route 30 enters W.Va. As a matter of fact I'm going there tomorrow.
