New to NGW

#1

Post by MaxB_Wings2 »

Hello, I have been, as my brothers calls me a Wing Nut for a few decades and new to this site. Working on a 1975 GL1000 and 1976 GL1000 LTD. My ride is a 2002 GL1800. Hope to get into the forum a little deeper in the future.
Appreciate what I have seen and read on the site.
Thanks
max

Welcome from Maine!

If you haven't done so yet, please start a build thread over in Members Restorations and Project (technical forum). We can follow your build easily over there. Or, if you're going more radical, start one in Underground Customizing. I'm never sure quite where the line gets drawn, but you'll easily figure out where your builds best fit.
