Bought my first Harley in July last year - 2014 Street Glide Special at 30 years young and I can't get enough.
I've been riding for about 5 years total and it was easily the best decision I've ever made.
My first bike wasn't half bad either..

2009 Suzuki Boulevard C50
I actually stumbled upon this forum because I was looking to see what other people were saying about getting back on the saddle after a shoulder surgery.
Had to put it into storage this week and I'm pretty bummed to miss most of the riding season but I'm sure i'll be rolling with Knees in the Breeze before I know it.
Hope y'all are riding safe and enjoying every minute

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!!

Just in case you have not done both of these two important items!
Be sure to add an Avatar of your favorite shot in the USER set up for the small picture you will see in the top left corner of your post.
And most importantly a Signature Line in your USER set up for your bike model, year, and all the letters that Harley recognizes it with.
(See mine below my bike picture.)
This enables others to know your exact model if you ever ask a question or another member interested in it may ask you a question about it....
