Default hello AGAIN

i already did my introductory post, but this seems to be the only section appropriate. i am extremely new to owning a harley and even riding a motorcycle, and i'm reading as much as i can and going through all the posts i can, but i am begining to get lost in alot of the jargon, some of it being the abbreviations and others just plain old termonology. is there some kind of harley almanac or dictionary i can reference while reading through all the forums???


p.s. for those of you wanting to reply "just ask" i would but there isn't enough time in the day. although everyone is extremely helpful and do a good job of not making people like me feel completely out of place.
