Hello everyone. my name is Andrew and Im about to be 34 years old. This is my first Harley. Been street riding now for almost 15 years. I have owned crotch rockets since 19 years old and grew up on 2 strokes. Sold my previous sport bike to my brother and wanted something I could cruise on and be comfortable and rack some miles up.
Ive owned the Heritage now for about a week and a half and put about 600 miles in.
All I can say is I love this damn thing. The bike is a 2018 Heritage with Bassini cholo fish tail exhaust, it has mini apes, crash bar, and a Legend air shock.
Welcome from Spartan Country, Michigan! I tell a lot of new comers to the forum to get: Factory Service manual and the Parts manual. Take to an office supply store and have them put a spiral binder in place of the glued binder. That will let the manuals lay flat on your bench. 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.
G'day Andrew from Downunder.
I bought my 1st HD only two years ago a 1988 FXST and love it. Spent 50 years riding British and Jap.
Good blokes here and willing to help with any questions.
Enjoy the ride.
Cheers
