Congratulations on your new bike. It is called the King for a reason.

Congrats on you new ride! Most excellent choice from the H-D line-up. Speaking of shinny stuff, get a tube of Flitz to keep them blinged up. Enjoy the many miles of smiles your FLHR will give you.

Congrats, and welcome aboard. You're going to love it, and yes you will spend way toooooo much $$ on shiney things. But it's a phase we all go through. Some of us go through it over and over and over again.
