Default OMG! Now I’m a Girl Obsessed!!


Not my usual riding gear... we went to yoga. All the ladies ran out to see what was happening when we showed up lol

Started this ride at 05:00. Ended at 22:30. So beautiful.

If it doesn’t say “no exit” we explore together!!

Default My Intro!!

Not sure where the words went but...Oh.My.Gods!! Hello hi! I am so grateful to find this forum. Mostly because it is so active and SO informative! I am beside myself with the wealth of information and experience I have witnessed just browsing through threads. Delighted!!



In a nutshell ... my brain literally broke with PTSD in 2006. I struggled and healed and in 2012 I went to motorcycle school and bought a bike. It gave me a life I didn’t even know I could ask for!! It still makes me cry when I talk about it. Totally helped heal my brain and my central nervous system. Definitely an endurance rider. I put 40k on it first eight months. Upgraded and approx 100k over next 2.5 years. Then life slowed me a wee bit. Smile. Just a tiny wee bit!! **** I love to ride.



2020!!

I currently own my Sweet Serendipity Rose, a 2017 Heritage Softail I bought new. My baby...💕 I still have a 4 year warranty with her but I am having troubles with the dealer ... conflicting technical information that makes no sense. SO grateful I get to learn from you fellas ... more in that to come!



My friend is in the process of putting together a 1948 EL panhead and ... who knew that my bike which is my heart’s desire is modeled after his 1948 heart’s desire. Connection!



Now I have become obsessed with learning everything I can learn about the Panhead, identifying OEM parts etc and how it all works because I totally want to build one too! Are you kidding? But I’ll learn on his dime lol.



Just wanted to say Hi and I look forward to seeing you in the “rooms.” Cheers!!

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, a rough idea of your range per tank, 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, and upwards of 230+ on trips.
Good Luck!!
