Hello everyone, my name is Benjamin, Im from Mexico city and I've just bought my first Harley Davidson.
I had a 2011 Suzuki Boulevard M50, it was a good bike but it's not the same LOL.
So I bought last saturday an 07 Sportster Custom 1200 in white gold pearl.
It has a lot of equipment: passing lamps, windshield with pocket, engine guards, custom foot pegs, fuel pak, vance and hines pipes, some chrome covers, sissy bar, etc.
Im very happy with it
Hope to learn more of it with you guys

Welcome to the world of HD. Now ride that puppy and enjoy it. While riding, stop and get yourself a shop manual for her, it's worth it's weight in gold.
