Default First Harley

After many years of owning bikes and wishing they were a Harley, I finally took the plunge. I purchased a 2002 Low Rider about 2 weeks ago.

8550 miles, V&H Straight Shots, Screamin' Eagle Pro Air Cleaner & Breather set, Detachable Super Sport Wind Shield, Corbin Gunfighter & Lady Seat, Medium Low Backrest, Forward Controls, plus a nice list of chrome upgrades.


I rode a friends Sportster and a Super Glide back in the AMF days, but this is my first experience with a Harley since the Evolution Engine. So far, I'm liking this machine real well.

BTW, does anyone know the name of this dark bluish green Harley paint they used in 2002?

Beautiful bike and congrats! Sorry, don't know the color though. You can get it from the Moco though since they use only certain colors on certain models depending on the year of the bike.

Nice ride & welcome!

I was away from motorcycles for 20+ years and had never had a harley. I started back into dirt bikes and dual sports about seven years ago and enjoyed those but was still missing the street bikes. Two years ago I showed my wife a picture of the Fatbob .... she said you should get one .... I didn't have to be told twice! Now that I have a harley, I can't beleive I waited so long .... what was I thinking! You'll enjoy it for sure!
