Default Got my first Harley today!!!

Just pulled the pin on my first Harley!! I bought the 2015 softail slim in amber whiskey. Can't wipe the smile off my face. It's not home yet, but will be in a few days. I don't even have my bike license yet, but man am I stoked. I'll post pics when she gets home.

You will be in a world of hurt (physically, mentally and financially) if you don't find a smaller bike to learn on.

Congrats on the new ride, I with nextinline, learn to ride on a smaller bike or take advantage of a state sponsored bike training program. You don't want to drop that beautiful bike...
