Newbie Intro

Hello and thanks in advance for all the help I am sure to get from you folks.

As the user ID suggests I am a retired Registered Nurse after 30 years of Emergency, Critical Care and for the last 8 years Hospice in Western MI, USA. I have been riding bikes for 50 years off and on, luckily more on than off. Did 9 years in the USN, stationed on 2 WWII Destroyers and 1 FFG. Did 3 years in Maine on shore duty serving at a Reserve Center in downtown Augusta, ME. In ME I joined the Vol. Fire and after earning my EMT license the Rescue as well which lead me into nursing. Unfortunately there will always be sick and injured so I thought it was a good solid job I could do anywhere.

In 2019 I inherited a 2005 HD Softail that my brother converted into a trike as he got older. This is the first HD I have owned, I always joked that I was a Critical Care nurse, then later in life a Hospice nurse so I could never afford a HD that I fit on. I was 6'6" and the sportsters always felt way to small of a frame and wheel base for me to be comfortable.

Enough about me, if anyone could help me on aligning my front and rear sprockets so I don't wear out another sprocket in a couple of months I would sure appreciate it.

Again thanks for all the help I know I will get from this forum in advanced
