Default First Harley, First Motorcycle
I am officially the proud owner of a 2007 Dyna Wide Glide! This is my first motorcycle. I could not stop grinning the whole ride home. Thank you to everyone here for the valuable information that greatly assisted me in finding the perfect bike for me. My Wide Glide has a 180 rear tire, and Stage 1 upgrade (high performance air cleaner, H-D race tuner and Vance and Hines pipes). This thing sounds MEAN. I already have $10K worth of things that I want to do to it. I am sure that is the case with everyone here when they first got their bikes. Pics are forthcoming.

Thanks again,

L0W R1D3R

I also got a 06 low rider, could not ride it for the first 3 months because I blew out my knee, just now starting to ride it just in the neighborhood... I took the 3 day riders course with my wife and we just got her an 07 sportster..
