Default First Harley

I got a 2002 Wide Glide about two weeks ago. I have been waiting almost 2 years to buy my first Harley. I have been reading alot of the posts during that time, and I want to thank everyone for the great information. Seems like everytime I had a question, I did not even have to ask. The answer was already here. The Wide Glide is great, and best of all it onlly had 130 miles on it when I got it. It is perfect and I can not even find a scratch. A mechanic checked it out for me and said that it was good to go. I look forward to many miles ahead. Thanks again for all of the great info.

Yes..I second that. Nice choice...you only have the coolest bike that harley makes! That's sweet that you were able to find a used bike with only 130 miles on it too. Congrats man, and enjoy!

You can't go wrong with any of the Dynas. I guess you can tell that I am kinda biased though,....LOL Sound like you found yourself a jewel of a bike though. Enjoy and have fun.

Congrats! You'll love your Wide Glide... I just bought my first Harley a few months ago (a Wide Glide of course) and absolutely love it. My money keeps disappearing and new chrome keeps appearing on the bike though... wife isn't sure how that's working, but I like it
