Default New guy with new Harley

Hey Guys,
got a new '06 Fat Boy peace officer edition from a police friend of mine who didn't like the fatboy and went for a heritage softail instead. Anyways his loss was my gain and I love the bike. I really like this forum and plan to be on here a lot. My bike is stock except for some new diamond plate footboards, pegs, grips, and new flush mount gas caps. Once you get a part it is addicting so I'm sure I will get more parts.
