Default Hello...newbie here
I'm a Harley newbie...and just wanted to say hello. I've been riding for years (sportbikes mostly...road and track) but have rented Harleys for trips and always loved the laid back riding. Anyway, finally picked one up for my very own ('04 Road King Custom) and I can't wait to get some miles on it this summer.

As I'm getting to know the bike I'm sure I'll be posting up questions so take it easy on me if I ask the obvious...haha

Frank
