Been lurking here for quite a while, just registered. Have been a member of the VTXOA site for a few years now. Thought i would jump on here and say hello. I ride a 2002 Vtx1800R Orange, the slowest BUT coolest color, LOL.

jump on in, the water's fine.
welcome to the madness.

Thanks for the nice words. Seems like there are a lot of riders here from eastern part of the country. Been looking at the get together this weekend, it is only 240 miles from me, might pop down to say hello to everyone.

Welcome aboard kymedic.

The water can be a little chilly in the morning but after the sun comes out it does warm up. The pool I jump into, neighbors, will give you duck bumps on the goose bumps every once in awhile. He works 3rd watch and likes to take a swim early in da mornin. I join him once in awhile, just to get the old blood a pumpin.......... LOL.........

How do you like your VTX?

I rode one a few weeks ago on a Poker run and I didn't care for all the vibration. It was brand spankin new however. Maybe after the first 1,000 mile checkup it smoothes out some...... It had 12 miles on it when I took off.. Had a dealer plate and it was designated for a demo bike.......

[kymedic]

No it isnt cause it was new. My shakes pretty good, but i sort of like it for some reason???? LOL The lil lady loves it more than i do, cant figure that one out??? who knows. She keeps wanting me to lug it in 5th?????? I have had mine for almost 2 years and the vibration hasnt really changed any ith mileage.

Welcome kymedic, hope you can make it this weekend, we are bound to have a great time. I live in NE TN, just off of I-81. I go to Louisville often up 25 to I-75, nice area to ride in. Take care, ride safe...

i saw your link to the atv page but it was out. I also love riding atv's. I have a soprtsman and a rincon. Too many toys not enough time. Yeah we get down to Kingsport quite a bit, taking people to Indian Path and Holston Valley. Would love to get up with some of the eastern tn people and ride some this summer.
