I've been looking around the forums for a couple weeks now and I decided it was about time I introduced myself. \\; My name is Adam, I'm 31 yrs old and I recently purchased my first Harley....a 2006 XL 883L. \\; I got a great deal and the bike and it only had 15 miles on it. \\; All I can say so far is...DAMN, wish I had done this ages ago!! \\; I am loving every minute of it. \\; Its by far the most fun I've had in years. \\; \\;
 \\;
I really enjoy the forums here. \\;\\\\\\; You all provide so great information and always seem willing to answer questions when you can. \\; Being new to Harley's, and relatively inexperienced with motorcycles in general, this place has provided with me a wealth of info so far.
 \\;
I look forward to many miles on the open road and hopefully to make some new friends along the way.
 \\;
Here's a couple pics of my bike.
 \\;
 \\;
The bike belonged to a friend of mine. \\;\\\\\\; She bought it brand new, had it delivered to her house, and then decided it was too big for her. \\;\\\\\\; Instead of trading it in, she just parked it in her garage and went out and bought a Buell Blast. \\;\\\\\\; Worked out well for me. \\;\\\\\\; Picked it up for only $5000.
Congrats and welcome! I'm new too. Been here about a month but haven't posted. 2005 883/1200 mini apes, bags, low in the back, raised 1.5 inches in the front. Welcome from Southeast Kansas.
