Smile Howdy!

Howdy fellers!

Friends call me D.

A 2010 Electra glide ultra limited basically "fell" in to my hands so now I am learning to ride a heavy bike. Not new to riding but all the bikes I rode all my life were small size bikes. This beast is a new territory for me (a bit heavier then what I am used to) and I am liking it.
I live in south Mississippi so riding season is 11 months out of the year. I come from a mechanical background and I consider myself inclined when it comes to wrenching.
