Default Newbie from Pittsburgh

Just purchased an '09 Screamin Eagle Ultra Classic (whoo HOOO). Traded in my '07 Road King Classic. I've owned 10 other bikes and been riding for about 38 years now. I'm looking forward to the insight and knowledge of the forum members here, and any tidbits of info I can provide. It's in the upper 30's here today, which means I'll have to get out the long pants to ride soon.
