Default New member new to Harley Davidson

Hi all,
I’m Mark from Norwich UK, I’m not new to motorcycles as I’ve had loads, mainly tourers and sports bikes, my last super quick bike was a Kwak H2 SX,
I now have a new Ducati Multistrada V4S but it needs a stable mate.
Being the wrong side of 60 and having done my time on the crotch rockets and hyper tourers, I’d thought I’d buy something just for fun but with lots of character.
Having looked through the Harley range within my budget I’ve narrowed it down to a Dyna Fat Bob. I’ve found a particularly nice, stock example with low mileage.
I’ve not been able to sit on one yet, I’m 6’4” but assume with the forward controls I should have plenty of room.

Is there anything in particular I should look out for ? It’s a 2011 model which has only done 11000 miles and looks very well looked after
