Being fairly new to H-D but not motorcycles in general, I'm yet to own one since I was never into cruisers but having ridden everything available here right from the Street to the Touring motorcycles, I think I'm coming close to realise what it means to own a Harley. And as they say, if I had to explain it, you probably wouldn't understand it!
I decided to join this forum in a bid to be able to help my fellow friends and acquaintances for the moment who own a Harley-Davidson. Sometimes, dealers do not provide the best solutions and that is where the tons of information available on this forum and through its members may prove to be helpful.
I'll keep it short and get back to work (Harleys aren't cheap!). Currently one of my very close acquaintances is facing an issue with the Tourpak on his 2018 FLHC Heritage Classic which I'll post in the specific section.
Looking forward to a great time here and thanks in advance.
Welcome from Spartan Country, Michigan! I tell a lot of new comers to the forum to get: Factory Service manual and the Parts manual. Get a three ring binder and record all your maintenance, repairs, accessories, etc. This will be a great reminder of what was done when. And great material to pass along to the new owner should you sell and upgrade. Also know how large your fuel tank is, and record your fuel usage. I have an app called Simply Auto that I record all my fuel used. I use the odometer and use the fuel gage as reference only. I reset the odometer to zero on fill ups, and I know I can safely get 200 miles on a tank on around town riding. Good Luck!!
I will be your tour guide. Be sure to read the manual before posting ok mate?
