Default First Harley!!
I've had bikes now for 20 years, and JUST got my first Harley. I just sold my Honda Shadow Sabre which owed me nothing and bought a 2007 FXSTC Softail Custom with 500 miles. Feels great, love the sound and power. I'm really glad to have found this forum and look forward to years of good times on this bike. I feel good on this bike, it has the python pipes and tons of extra chrome, which by the way, is my favorite color! Live in Wichita, KS and am a dentist. Very cool. Craig

Also, I am having trouble finding some good detachable saddlebags for this bike.... Any suggestions? Thanks![8D]
