I just ordered my first HD. I have to wait 6 weeks for my FLHRI, and I hope I can make it! What did you do during the wait time?

Let me think what I did for six weeks prior to getting my bike.....Shop for parts, read all I could, learn as much as possible, and bother the heck out of the stealer where I was getting bike from. Pther than that welcome to the Fourm if you have any questions ask away, need some advice make a poll. Enjoy and get some pics of it on here once you get it
