Hadn't ridden any kind of street bike in a very long time but got the bug and I bought my first Harley almost 3 years ago. It's a '22 Road Glide Special. Little big & heavy for my first bike back on the street, but no regrets. Just turned 12K miles on it. Been having lots of fun using it as my local cruiser, and a couple trips every year. Just got back from a run up to Lake Isabella then thru Death Valley. Lucked out with good weather.

I have fun working on it too. Bars, pipes, general maintenance, etc... Getting ready to do some more.

Been lurking these forums for a couple years reading reviews on parts and how-to's. Time to sign up.
