Default New guy from socal


Hey guys just wanted to introduce myself. I'm in socal and finally made the switch to a Harley after riding sport bikes for the last 13 or so years. My last bike was a 2015 R1 and it was fun but wanted to move to something a bit more tame. Planning a few simple mods nothing crazy on this one. I love this bike!!! Coming from sport bikes I was hesitant if I'd like it but after a test ride I fell in love. Puts a smile on my face every time I get in the saddle. Thanks for all the info on this forum lots of cool content and great ideas. Ride safe boys.
