Hello, and thanks for the add. Located in Tolar, TX.

I just got my first bike and though it's not pretty, I plan on bobbing it and hope its a good base to start with.

Welcome and lots with good looking custom self done 750/800 on this board.Cuban and Lechy are two of many and lots of help on troubles from one's like Lechy. Cuban is smart all so but so far north he has a bit of brain freeze! Its so cold he just took his water cooler all the way off! Or it fell of and he said he did it for clean look ? Any way he has a good looking bike. :cheers: :putput:

Welcome to the board.....the Intruder line of bikes really look just as good stock as they do customized
But each to his / her own liking.

Oh, welcome to the forum!
Well, that picture makes it look pretty... Almost all of the chrome is pitted and rusted, paint faded, and aluminum is oxidized. Has 50k miles on it.

Character. I don't like showy new things. They have none.
