Hey everyone. Name's Brad; fairly recent biker so I thought I'd introduce myself by posting a interesting bit of news I found.

Japanese lad's Harley washed away in the tsunami last year, it's been found, and now HD look like they're gonna restore it for him

I bet he's over the moon that he got it back. Can you imagine loosing your bike? Sad

And great respect for Harley to offer to restore it for him.

Im also astounded it made it across the ocean and didn't disappear

You'd be more gutted when the insurance company got wind and claimed the restored one back after they'd paid out for it.

And yes, if I lost Bess I'd be very, very sad...
