looks like a nice place to ride. questions: how do you like your headlight? are you happy with the way it mounts? where did you get it?

Thanks man! My LBS was a dealer - but they didn't have any on the floor. One of the mechanics, who helped me out, is a huge Electra fan (he's got a few) and he is really into cruisers/choppers...so he was excited to order it and get one into the shop. When I picked it up all of the mechanics...

It has arrived. I waited, and it came. I love this thing...

welcome aboard! i just picked-up my sparker tonight...great bikes, huh?

Hello everyone. My name is Matt, and I just turned 30 last week. I live in Wethersfield, Connecticut with my wife, my beautiful daughter (7-months-old) and my pug Molly. I am a graphic designer who just started my own business in April...it's nice to be your own boss. I just bought my first...

Nice looking bike. I like the bolt-ons, everything looks nice. Where did you get the light? I'm looking for an all black one just like that. I just bought the all black one - it should be in this weekend (fingers-crossed). I hope to be posting some photos of it as soon as I get it home!

I like this idea. It's cool to see where everybody is coming from and riding. I just ordered my new Sparker Special on Tuesday (8/12), I'm hoping it comes in by the weekend. I'll take it for a cruise as soon as I can and bring my camera to show off my hood. Until then.

Thanks Lightfoot...good looking bike. Electra sure does make a nice looking product. I'm off to the bike shop this afternoon to place my order. I can't wait to pick it up and post some pics.

Thanks Rat Rod - the bike looks really great! I love the stance and the paint looks sweet. Lightfoot - do you have any photos of your Super Delux up on the board? I'd love to see that too.

Nobody has any photos out there? I'm still holding off on the purchase, I was hoping I would see some "real life" photos of some Sparker's in action to help me make up my mind. I'll take anything. If you ride a sparker, know someone who does, or work at a bike shop with one on the floor, please...

I think I've made up my mind on a new bike - thanks for all of those who helped in the decision making process. I hope to buying a new 2008 Electra Sparker Special. If anyone out there is currently riding one and has some photos of it, I would love to see them. My LBS do not have any on the...

Thanks guys. I think I'm going out this weekend to purchase an Electra Sparker. What is a fair price to pay for this? Do LBS negotiate the price at all? I haven't bought a bike in years. I just don't know what color to get...I thought I was sold on the all black...but seeing the lighter color...

Thanks for your feedback. I really appreciate it. However, I am not looking to build a bike. I don't have the time right now between running my own graphic design business (from home) and watching my 7-month-old daughter...I'll be lucky to just get out and ride my bike! I'm just looking for...
