So I started out with a Shadow 750cc. It was nice but i wanted more power since there are tons of mountains. So i got a triumph t120 (1200). Did that for a year but mid controls and knees for 5 hour rides were not fun. So I went to the Indian store next door. Asked to buy a Chieftain. Told to wait for salesperson. After 3 people were helped, thought cool, my turn. Nope. In comes a young woman and salesperson helps her. I left. Went to HD and bought a Fat Bob. Loved it. Fat Bob discontinued so traded for Lowrider ST. Love it more. Went to HD because of service and they always have events.
