Talking Newbie.. Returns

Hello,

I was a prior HD owner (07' FLHTC) that made a big mistake by trading it in last year for a R1200RT. Actually the Beemer was/is a great machine, but my bad right hip prevents me from enjoying it's riding position without pain, so just bought a new 2014 Dyna Switchback.

I'm sure that I'll have plenty of questions to ask you fine folks, and will gladly share anything discovered while turning the wrench on my new scoot.

Thanks, and ride safe.
