Default Everyone just stop!

I've been on this forum for just over a month now and I wish everyone would stop posting all the info that I've read. It's costing me too much money!!! LOL! Seriously thanks to all, i've been a harley guy for years and learned a lot and spent a lot from forum information and this forum has been great!!! Found some great deals and products for my 02 black vert.
And by the way black is the fastest color! I'm enjoying my car even though my wife says it's too flashy for her, (I told her I didn't buy it for her anyway) Keep posting everyone

The fastest color is actually blue; that is why super man has a blue outfit.

It did. I saw it once in person. Anybody under 20 thought it was cool. Mixed bag for everyone else. Lots of snickering, but even the people that hated it thought the work was first class, just too damn much.

Like the steering wheel. Bet the air bag would hurt if it deployed.
