If you're serious about riding, you'll be fine. You will get used to that bike after a couple weeks riding.
Good choice!

 

I'd recommend getting it out of town, away from traffic, and put some miles on it. Practice tight corners, fast stops, etc., until you feel comfortable.
Like caulk04 said, respect the thing.
Road Glides are great bikes.

 

Thanks! Getting ready to check it out.

 

Thanks. I'm checking that out.

 

Welcome to the forum and your question is fine being posted here, since this is a "touring" forum. Lots of great advice already mentioned, enjoy your new ride!

 

That's what i figured. I'm quite serious.

 

Thanks i will!

 

i stay out away from the city. I'll be doing a lot of practicing just through our sub division. They'll probably hate me by the time I'm done. It sounds good!!

 

Welcome to the forum from the west side of the mitten in the land of tulips and the only Dutch windmill in the U.S. I also ride a R/G Ultra. What hasn't been mentioned and you'll learn the hard way is to keep the front tire straight when slowing down and braking otherwise it will pull itself over, nature of a heavy front end. Find a empty parking lot(school, church , etc.) to do your practice.

 

Welcome to the forum, since you picked a Road Glide it is obvious you have great taste LOL

Take it slow and easyand give yourself time to get used to the bike, others have given good advice. Just ride at your own pace and skill level, don't let others dictate your progression and you will be fine
