Default Another West Virginia Newbie

After reading posts on the forum for 3 years I finally decided to take the plunge and sign up. There have been several postings over the years that I wanted more info. on or questions that I had. My 05' Superglide had parts and mods based on a lot of information that I found on the forum. I recently (4 days ago) traded it in on a 2008 Electra Glide Classic and I am planning on adding new parts as $$$$ becomes available. Some of then will be based on the experience many of you have already had. Now if the weather will just cooperate I can start putting some miles on (the dealer delivered it in a snow storm and it hasn't been out of the garage yet). On the bright side, there isn't a part on it that hasn't been polished.
