Just bought my 2013 Softtail SLIM
Well, I've been off and on here for a bit, but today it's official...I"m the proud owner of a 2013 HD Softtail Slim. Sadly..It's being built so I won't see her for 6 months till I return to the US. BUT, I'm excited none the less!

Thanks all.
I got a couple options on her, and plan to buy some online and have the shop add them before I arrive.
I went with the denim black paint, and with the security package + ABS. I'm gonna change out the seat, add the mount for a removeable rear seat, Thinking of going with a pair of white walls to add some more "classic" into the mix. Was also debating on changing out the lamp to something that will show a more classic appearance..lol
Alot more tweaks will happen once I get her, engine, exhaust, ect. But I first want to cruise around for a few months before I start a project like that..lol! If I get stuck in KY I'll use the winter as my overhual time!
And your right, the waiting will make this even more worth it!
What else would yall suggest I look into for upgrades?

Congrats on the new ride. Nice to see you have plans for her. Welcome to the brotherhood partner.
You said you'd be OCONUS for six months. Are you in the military?
