Default NewB

Hello all. Not a HD owner yet but looking seriously. Been riding since age 8 and have loads of experience with BMW's. Trouble is, the new ones have lost their Soul, which is what attracted me to them in the first place. Enter Harley Davidsons, which by most accounts have not lost their Soul. Wifey and I are looking at baggers and I thought joining the forum would be a good way to educate myself on the different models and styles.
I'll be lurking and learning and will post a question or three along the way.
Ride safe.
