My wife and I have been talking about a Harley for 20 years....

We finally (after 5 kids, 2 homes, 2 boats, and 15 motorcycles) purchased a 2008 Road Glide 105th Anniversery bike......we are pumped...

It is heaven...

You have definitely earned it. I waited until 57 and haven't looked back. Welcome to the forum from Ocala in Central Florida. Enjoy...

I waited until I was 56 for my first HD. Had to give it up for a trike due to MD, but I still am riding a Harley. Welcome, you and your wife will enjoy your ride.
