Hi Guys...

Just wanted to check in and introduce myself. I'm 50 years old and recently bought my 2nd Harley. The first being a Sporster in the early 70s. Hadn't ridden in many years and then WHAMMO!!! The bug bit again! So, I took the plunge and bought a '05 Superglide. (I'll post pics soon). I had forgotten how much I loved riding!! Anyway, that's the long and the short of it. Looks like a great board!

Thanks guys! I appreciate the welcome.I'm curious about one thing though. I've heard many times that "Loud Pipes Save Lives" and I agree completely, now, any suggestions on what a newbie should get? I mean I am looking for LOUD......if you know what I mean....

Welcome aboard. Forget about straight pipes for an 05, but Rineharts and V&H both make some pretty obnoxious, I mean loud, pipes. I have the V&H.

I don't know what the model number is, but a friend of mine has some V&H on his and you can definitley hear him coming before you see him. You want loud, those pipes rock.

Welcome from Iowa! I just bought my first Harley almost 4 weeks ago and I'm sure you'll love your
Super Glide as much as I love mine. Have fun riding!
