First Bike, good decision.
Been looking around a while, but this is my first post.
About two weeks ago I bought my first bike. Never ridden before, always wanted to but was involved in boats, cars, etc. Life changes prompted a change in attitude, so I gave myself an attitude adjustment in form of a harley davidson. Did the MSF safety course and then went in looking at a 1200 sporty and left with a 2012 street bob in vivd black. I bought it from Heart of Dixie Harley Davidson in Pelham AL, near where I live in Birmingham.
The bike is stock except for some baloney cut rush slip ons, opening the stock airbox/filter, and a reflash done at the dealer. Since delivery I put on a fork bag for essentials, an HD solo semi rigid saddle/tool bag, and a set of HD highway pegs.
So far I've ridden the bike about 1000 miles. Hooked. Look forward to learning more about the dyna and the 96 twin cam from you guys.

I used to ride a Triumph Scrambler, then a 1200 sportster, now I ride a Dyna Fat Bob. Wish I could go back and tell myself to just buy a Dyna from the start lol. Welcome to the Dyna world.
