Default New kid on the block!

Hi Ya'll!
Just graduated from a 95 Sporty to an 05 FLSTC, man what a difference! Took the Sporty out to circulate its juices the other night and it about shook me to death. Waiting for my V&H Lonshots to get here so I can make it sound like a Hog. I am a Realtor in the Jacksonville Beach FL area, so look me up sometime at Dicks Wings on 3rd Street (A1A) on a Tuesday night, I'll be ridin' a smoky gold 2 tone. And if you are looking to buy or sell at the Beach, drop me an email! (I hope I can add that shameless plug?)
Ride Safe!

Welcome to the forum and congrats on the new bike. Send us pics and a review when you get time.
BTW, by a strange coincidence, I am also in the Real Estate business. I specialize in bridges. I have one in Brooklyn and one with a fancy gold gate in San Francisco. If anyone's interested, have your people get in touch with my people.
