Default First ride this year.

Since I got a SG this spring and I wanted to get 1K on it to get the service done and we have had a long wet spring, I did not have a chance to get the 07 FXSTC out.

Had to take my wife to the store, power wash the patio, mow the lawn and finaly I was free at last!

Sun shining and blue sky. I fired it up and down the road I went. I had almost forgotten how smooth it rides. Reminds me of my 1969 Norton Commando Fastback I had 41 years ago.

I carved some corners and ran it through the gears on the straights. Darn. I had to get back for supper.

It is the best looking HD also.

I agree! I JUST bought my 2nd Harley this past Saturday and I haven't gotten the 1st "Ride" in yet this year. It's at the dealership now getting worked on but hopefully this coming weekend my girl and I can jump on the bike, pick a vague destination and just GO. Perhaps somewhere near the ocean...after the chores are done of course. lol Mow the dogs, feed the lawn and off we go!

You guys are kidding right? It's pushing July and you guys haven't ridden yet?

I've got a lot of miles logged on this year already and planning on logging on a lot more this weekend.
