New Slim Owner
I just wanted to introduce myself.
I'm picking up my new, 2014 softail slim tomorrow and couldn't be more excited. It's also my first Harley and my first new bike. I know a few softail and slim owners locally, but wanted to hop into the forum to see what mods people recommend, what issues people find, and other model specific information.
I chose this bike because I love the clean look and because of the low center of gravity. I'm a smaller rider and it's a challenge finding bikes that don't give me a huge workout just to park them. I can't wait to ride my new bike, but I'll have to wait a few months for the Alaskan winter to ease.
I look forward to learning more here and thank you all for sharing your experiences and knowledge.
And here's a picture of the new girl. I think she's gorgeous already, but I'm sure I'll want to make changes to make her mine.

cpc0812 - I love the color more and more the more I look at it. It's their "Daytona Blue" and you get some really nice variation depending on the way the light hits it, from a deep blue to almost green, depending. Very nice and I think it looks particularly good with the slim's styling.
