Just completed the MSF at a HD dealer and bought a 2014 Sportster 1200 Custom. Just waiting for my endorsement to be added... which may take a bit of time since I'm military and my license is out of state and COVID-19.

Excited to begin riding.

The only pic I have is when I loaded the bike in the truck. I'll post that once I get home as I don't have access to my cell at work. I called the DoL and they were actually helpful, but my paperwork hadn't arrived yet...
