Talking My first Harley!!!

Hello all,

My name is Binesh and this is my first post. After years of dreaming, I am finally a proud owner of a Harley (2016 FLSS) which happens to be my first bike. I absolutely love it; the more I ride the more I fall in love with. Though I have ridden other makes of my friends' - Honda, Kawasaki, Royal Enfield - Harley is the one I have always wanted.

Looking forward to keep learning about riding every single day. Happy riding you all. Cheers!!

Stunning bike....really....that's beautiful!

I'll give you the same advice I've been telling newer riders for 30 years.....it's that first 1000 miles that you REALLY need to be careful on.....in my opinion it takes that long to really learn the bike.....both the accidents I've had in the past were both in the first 1000 miles......and both due to my own inexperience. Be safe and have a blast! Oh and welcome!

Thank you all, so heartening to see so many well wishers!!

@TurboChris - That's a great a piece of advice, thanks. I have done close to 400 miles so far; planning to do a 200 mile trip this weekend. Can't wait
