I've been riding bikes since age 6 or 7. Mostly dirt bikes but a lot of friends road bikes too. In 1998 I picked up a 1995 Harley Sportster 1200 from a GREAT independent shop in VA. Classic Iron.....would highly recommend them to anyone. I was originally lookin' in the Harley shop right down the street (East Coast HD) but they pissed me off becase the only words I could get out of them were "don't touch the bikes". To this day if I RIDE in there they will speak to me but if I DRIVE they wont say a word. Worst bunch of folks I've ever met.
