Welcome aboard L-man....Lots of good stuff on here, wealth of knowledge, and a ton of BS mixed in as well...LOL...

I have been looking at adding the VTX to the stable, they have the 05' VTX1800n Brand new at the local dealer here for $8999...Seems like a pretty good deal...

You will love the Hawk, she is a great bike...

Now where are the pics??????

I picked mine up about a month ago and love the bike. I live just past Austin in Round Rock. The international motorcycle show is in Fort Worth this weekend and there is a nice croud of people I know are riding up if yoe're interested.

Welcome L Man

Welcome L-Man.. I traded a Valk for a 2000 VTR and a 250 Ninja for wife. Only ridden a bit before winter hit...I'm already loving this bike...Seems so light and responsive after the Valk...

Enjoy..Ride safe

BeerHunter is an unknown quantity at this point
I'm not too sure how many other other San Antonio riders you will find here on this forum. Is Converse close enough, neighbor??

Slightly off topic, but you guys will know this;
I was down in Corpus / Kingsville on buiseness a few years back and visited the aircraft carrier museum in the Corpus bay. What is the name of that carrier ?
