Default New guy here from Florida!
Hello everyone! My dad has ridden Harley's all my life, and I've been riding for the past 20 years or so, dirt bikes and then street bikes when I got a little older. I've always wanted a Harley, and I've owned a Ninja 250, a 1981 Yamaha XV920R, a 1982 Virago 920, and an 08 Suzuki Boulevard M50, which I sold in 2012 when I moved up north temporarily. A few weeks ago, with the wife's blessing, I climbed back into the saddle with my first Harley; a beautiful 98 FXDWG Anniversary. Looking forward to utilizing the vast knowledge base of this community to help me out moving forward!
