Hi all
New to this site and new to the Harley motorcycle.
I have an assortment in my stable, Triumph, Goldwing,
and my latest is a 2001 Harley 883 Sportster.
I have resisted over the years but a few weeks ago there was this
pretty little bright yellow Harley advertised locally for a great price and I
could resist the temptation no longer.
One thing I am not is a computer geek so if I can figure out how to post a picture of my little yellow Harley I will.
I've got great plans for her, first thing is to bump her up to 1200 cc and
we'll see what happens after that.
I reside at Conception Bay South, Newfoundland, Canada I live near the
most easterly point in north america.
We have some of the greatest and the most breathtaking scenery in the world here on the rock and it's a wonderful place to bike.
All the best and ride safe
Dave

Greeting from Los Angeles Twilldous. Nice color! I have only seen one like that out here on the west coast.

With the roads in Canada contending with snow most of the year, I'll bet your very excited about getting out there and riding.

In Los Angeles, we're spoiled. 12 months of riding will do that to oneself.

If you have some more pictures of the bike and roads your riding on, lets see them please.

Ride Safe cool gleam

Thank-you for the greeting DynaPatty:
Don't have any pics of the Harley on the road yet because I just bought her and the riding season is not officially started here yet it's still watch your chance for a good day to ride.
May month will see more and better riding days.
Twelve months riding, wow how do you do it? You lucky bunch, i could only dream, we're lucky to get six and with heated grips.
Will take a few pics on my next outing and post them.
All the best and ride safe

Welcome to the forum from another XL883 owner/rider! Hey, what model of Triumph do you have? Is the Goldwing a four cylinder or a six cylinder model? Glad to have you here and ride safe out there!

Hi XL
Thank-you for the welcome, just getting my feet wet here.
The Triumph is a 1970 Bonneville T120R, my Goldwing is a
1985 Aspencade with 123000 Kms she's our 2 up rider.
See pics
All the best and ride safe

It would be great Twilldous if you could share one of your fav. maps/roads of the area you ride in. Canada would be a great trip.
