Default Hello

Just wanted to introduce myself, Bill here. I am in the US Army stationed here in the great Aloha state of Hawaii. I am a little new on the street side of motorcycles. I just got my license in June of this year when I purchased a 2008 Ninja 250. It was a fun bike but never felt good on it and my plan was to wait a few years to get another bike. Well I happened to be at the dealership about a week ago and I asked about a used 2008 Road King Classic. Knowing that I was a return customer they made me a heck of a deal and I took it. I am looking forward to riding this thing till I die.
Well thats the short version. I hope to learn a lot about things on this forum.
