Default Hello everyone!
New member and first time HD owner. I've been riding heavy weights for several years, Honda GoldWings to be exact. Just bought my first HD Electra Glide Ultra Classic two weeks ago at the auction I work for. Picked up a 2007 Electra Glide Ultra Classic with only 40K miles on it. It was a repo and the bank wanted 7K for it. Out the door with auction fees and DMV, $8,350. I think I pretty much stole it!

Thank you very much! Glad to be here and I'm hoping this former GoldWing rider will learn a thing or two about HDs.
