Default My first harley.

So I did open a thread awhile ago but logged in with facebook so I registered a account so Ill introduce once again. Names steve live in NY searched for awhile for a harley I didnt have a big budget but didn't want a sporty. I found my new to me 90 Electra glide classic pick this up for $4800 figured I tole it for that price only issue is the paint came off engine block either then that its in amazing shape. Im glad to finally be apart of the harley family after years of wanting one and saving my extra dollars to get one.

Great job! Welcome to the Forum from Middle Georgia. It is amazing how you can transform these bikes with a little TLC and $$$. Hope you dont mind me sharing my experience. All of these pictures are of the same 2005 Standard model. Wish I still had it.

Welcome from NoCo!

Enjoy your bagger. I got my second Harley, 2003 Electra Glide Classic, in May 2014 for $7500. The deals are out there for people like us that are looking.
