Just brought mine home Monday night. I'm 48 and this is my first Harley. Your story is probably alot like mine. Had alot of Jap bikes, always wanted a Harley, but........... We just put it off and put it off. We all have bigger priorities in life I know, but at a certain point one stops and thinks...WTF?! It's now or NEVER. I guess you might call it a crossroads of sorts. One can wind up getting too busy living in order to just live. Congrats on your new scoot. Enjoy, ride safe, and post some pics when you can. I'm working on that now myself. Gonna take a good long break-in ride this weekend with my Honey and once I find a good scenic back drop........PHOTO OP!

"You've all been there before so I'm sure you know what I'm going through."

Awesome! I love the color of the PO bikes! But sadly, I don't know the feeling as I just walked in off the street, pointed to an EG Classic and said, "I'll take that one IF you'll take X amount..." The dealer said "OK... will that be cash or credit?" To which I replied... cash". BUT, it was nice to see another couple contemplating buying the same bike when the dealer walked over and wrote "SOLD" on the sign on the windshield. The look on their face was PRICELESS! The woman actually turned around and glared at me! Then she smiled at me and said "NICE"!

Congrats. I wanted to order one as well but I was told that you had to be current or retired LENF. Since I'm former, that wasn't enough. Had to settle for an EG Standard. No complaints here!
