Default My New Ride

Good afternoon ladies and gents, just got home with my bone stock 2008 Black Pearl Street Glide. This is my first Harley and so far I love it. I've been lurking here for a couple of month while I mulled over whether to get rid of my old Yamaha. Thanks for all the information I was able to gleen to help me make my decision.

sweet bike.......just wait, you'll have that big ol' goofy grin from
ear to ear every time you ride it.
A very good friend of mine just bought the pewter denim S/G
the same day I bought my pewter pearl R/G.....and neither one of
us can wipe the smiles from our faces

enjoy her and ride safe
