Default New guy from MN

Just decided to join HDForums, and wanted to say Hi. I live in MN so the riding season is short, but I make the most of it. I've owned/ridden about a dozen different bikes of various makes over the years, but right now I like Harleys the best. I currently ride a mostly stock 2016 Ultra Limited for long trips, and a customized 2007 Softail Custom for fun/day trips. Hope to learn some things here, and contribute when I can.

Noticed you are in Carver County. The local dealer (Eden Prairie) has rides every Saturday, pretty fun with a free lunch after the ride...
