I bought mine last year, when I was still in my 20's. Good choice, the evo's are rock solid!

Half-smart or half-dumb. I'm not sure because I'm really not that smart.

Was 24 when I got a bagger. I guess its all I knew growing up with my old man. Hell I used to ride to little league games in spikes and holding onto my ball glove on one. The apple never falls to far from the tree..

Nice! Same deal here, 29 and I've had my Electra classic for a few years now and doubt I'll ever. Only took one cross country trip on my sporty riding with all baggers and I saw the light!

Congrats on your purchase!

I bought my FLHX as a 32 y.o.

2nd bike, 1st Harley.

I am addicted. The Stereo ROCKS! and the 120R will kick a$$.

Good purchase, Ride safe man.

Ohhh.....you just had to throw that in our face huh.

I've had numerous bikes since age 19.
Wanted a bagger since age 32, but couldn't afford one until now at age 36. I could only buy a non bagger HD if it were a 2nd bike. It would be a Wide Glide with a 110 or 120r.
