    By  (I am an Owner) on Aug 27, 2010

    By  (I am an Owner) on Jan 12, 2010

    I have owned a 1997 Yamaha 750 Virago and a 2003 HD 883 Sportster - both pre-owned. Prior to purchasing my first new motorcycle I researched various models and types over a period of several months - while deployed to Iraq.
