Hello all,
Just wanted to say hello and introduce myself. I'm a long time rider, but a first time HD owner. I decided on a 1997 Dyna Wide Glide that I just fell in love with the first time I rode her. She's got some bumps a bruises but she's 20 years old..
She's got 49k miles on her and needs some love, but what woman doesn't?
Thanks for having me, and I look forward to hearing from fellow Dyna lovers like myself.
