Default First Harley

I’ve been lurking on this site for awhile now and figured itwould be time to join. I never reallycared for Harleys for the longest time until the Street Bob came out. When I saw that bike, it was the first Harleythat I would want own. I liked the cleanretro look and it looked to be the perfect canvas to mod as you see fit. I finally pulled the trigger in 2013. I was working in Germany and ordered it throughHarley Military Sales. I got it withthe red wheels, 103 engine (option at the time), ABS and security. I’ve beensoaking up the knowledge that this forum provides and hope to continue with mymods via ideas and suggestions from the members. Thanks for looking.

Great looking bike! Pretty good contingent of VA folks on the board. If you weren't already aware or are interested the VA and MD arms of the Patriot Guard is pretty active as well in the area given proximity to Arlington.

Enjoy and ride safe!
