Default Finally upgraded!

Traded in my '06 Softail Fatboy for an '08 Electra Glide Classic (Pacific Blue Pearl / Vivid black). Wow, what a great bike. Lots of power, storage, and tunes. Wish I had done this years ago. My wife and I like to take long trips, but that is more difficult with the Fatboy. I nowlook forward to riding in comfort. Took my first trip today(unfortunatley to work, thought briefly about accidentily missing my exit and continuing onto Wyoming ).Look forward to reading all the posts in the forum and sharing in the HD experience.

Only have one pic to share, took it with my cell phone in the parking lot at work. Hope this attaches correctly. You know how first-timers are......

Congrats on the new ride--I saw that color combo at my local HD store and thought it was very sharp.

Nice looking bike. I love the pac blue on black. Might try that when I get sick with an all black bike.

Great looking bike! I test drove several of the softtails before buying my Road Glide. They are fun, but I like the comfort and utility of the touring bikes.

Congrats. Nice color combo. I almost bought an EGC in the same color.
