Thank you for your service to our country. When you get home and riding that new Harley, don't let your ego get in the way of your common sense. As you know, more service men are killed on motorcycles when they return home, than are killed in combat. Have fun, but be careful!
According to statistics i'm too young to own a Harley but as of last night i'm the proud new owner of a '04 Road King Custom. My goal was to own a Harley before i turned 25 and i made it 3 years early. I'll have pics up as soon as my wife gets them to me. Now i just have to make it through the last month and a half here in Afghanistan and it'll be non-stop riding for me.
It's in the manual, you're not allowed to operation a geezer glide until at least 50 years of age. j/k
congrats - get home, get out & put some miles on it.
