Default New Rider

I am a first time rider only have 500 miles on the road so far. I went out and took the local Rider's Edge course got my license and bought an 883 Iron for my first bike. So far I enjoy riding started riding back a forth to work. Got my wife a helmet and went for a short ride she sems to enjoy it. The reasion I wanted to join y'alls fourm is I plan on making some adjustments to it in the future and figured I might need some advice form time to time on this or that. I dont know the first thing about a Harley only that my dad bought a 76 sportster the year I was born and had it untill the day he died in 89. I would be on that bike but my mom traded it for my first car at 16 she said I'd kill my self on it probably true. Well thats a little about my self.
