Default Howdy from a new guy.

Hi all, I have been lurking for quite awhile and thought it was time to say hello. I have been the proud owner of a 1993 Softail Custom for about 5 years and just last Wednesday, picked up my brand new, vivid black 2007 Streetglide. I could not be more satisfied. Only mods so far have been Stage 1 with Rinehart true duals and an 8" Fastaire windshield. My rider essential kit is on order from Chicago Harley (always 20% off parts). As soon as the dealer gets it, I will have cruise control. Thinking about a seat for my wife who finds the stock seat a bit uncomfortable. The ride is great. I live in NW Louisiana, about 175 miles east of Dallas. Would love to hook up for some rides to Texas or Arkansas. Thanks for having me.

Jerry
