Default Finally got one

After lots of fun searching the last few months, a bike finally picked me.

Planets aligned and I bought this on Wednesday. Picked it up this morning and spent the day getting to know it.

1998 Electra Glide Classic. Carbed EVO w/ 65K on it. Have tons of service and work records on it. Has a SE 3 cam, SE air cleaner, and SE slip ons (64910-99).

Get to spend the winter "making it mine", but until then, we are gonna' keep adding miles to it for now.

Sure was fun during the searching and buying process, but I'm glad to move on to the enjoying phase.









Detachable tour pack, and also have a detachable backrest for the hot chick, a riders backrest for me, and a trailer hitch.



Visited a buddy today and he changed out the tall windshield for a much better short one until I get the one I want.

You have a longer riding season in MD than we do in NH. So you can use it longer.
Keep us posted. Thanks..
