Default New Soft Tail

Sold my steet bob today.. And bought a 2007 Soft Tail Standard Vivid Black with the wheel Package.. (Picking up tommoro at 10:00 am.) This will be my firstSoft Tail and man it's smooth.. I've beenon the HD Dyna fourm for a while..I was looking for a Blank platfourm for this winter and think I made the right choice.. I'll have the rest ot this season to break it in.. All other bikes have been Hard Tails, FewChoppers, And Antiques, Mostly Pans and a few Shovels, Anda 06 Wide Glide And 06 Street Bob.. Still have one 06 Street bob (wifes) Just a Introduction in case I have some Questions about a few Short Cuts or approaches.. And am fairly successful with the Search function, just in case.
