Hi Everybody,
just picked up my new Harley Sportster 883 today and was wondering if anybody else on here has taken to bike since they arrived in the USA. Just love riding it without a helmet (Yes I know its stupid and dangerous) but at least here they let you decide

It certainly did however 6 weeks later and he has his confidence back and has been spotted doing 60mph .

Loves his bike and thinks he is a real biker dude now.

Stay safe

I used to have a Sportster it was the 1200 a 94 model back in 96 it's a big thing here in CA there are bikers all over the place, personally I don't care for them anymore I got over it years ago but I know that many folk still enjoy the thrill

Why anyone would travel on US roads with no protection around them is beyond me.

Its a man thing that women can never undserstand, Its a bit like why us men can never understand why you need so many shoes or handbags

BE's lost one member due to a motorcycle accident in Florida. I can't recall a death by shoe or handbag...although I could be wrong.

Please wear a helmet and be careful.

The arseholes at the city finally put a light there ~2 years ago, only after a schoolbus got rear ended at the same spot.

It's too late for Terry but hopefully it will save future lives.

Hope you have very good health insurance and a lot of life insurance through your job. You don't want to leave your wife with a lot of bills but instead a nice big bonus when she marries some other dude.

And on that cheerful note, I'm going to bed.

Nice bike but not for me. They're everywhere here in WI. I ride a Triumph Tiger.

Would never ride without a lid. Ever. Mental.

In NH if your riding a bicycle at 10mph you need a helmet, if your riding a motorcycle at 110mph you don't
Guess that tells you which is the most dangerous
