Hey NewBiker. Orlando!!!!!!!!!!! Best duty station I had in the Navy. Spent a lot of time down on Orange Blossom Trail. I even ran into my 1st wifes brother and sister-in-law in a strip club that they worked at (unbeknownst to me) on "the Trail". Man, you've got it made down there. 60 miles from Daytona, 100 from Tampa, and BEAUTFUL women everywhere!!! As for riding time, 30 years now both dirt and street. Yamahas, Hondas, Kawasakis, Suzukis, Bultacos, Hodakas, Triumphs, BSAs, and Harleys. Currently live in Augusta, GA for the last 11 years. Give me a shout.

Thanks for the welcome Jack. i had thought about a tankbag but i might nee a little more. I work as a fireman and might just a little more space than what a tank bag is gonna give me.

yeah your right there wulf i do live a good area. Im trying to get out on the bike more but its finding time, i do work a lot but im gonna change that part so i can get out. I should be at Biketoberfest late Oct.. Anyone else gonna be there..
