RE: New Harley owner
Thanks...I will let you all know how the class goes...we have class room time on thursday nite, and then we are on the cylces(their own) on sat and sun. I look forward to it.
I have a question...I was putzing around with my cycle in the garage today...as you saw in the picture I walked it outside for the picture. I noticed that I have to have it in neutral to move the bike...if I was in 1st gear and even with the clutch pulled in all the way it was hard to move. I had the engine off the whole time. So what is the deal here? The clutch not working properly?

Welcome to our place... fill out your profile for us, we like to Know about our new friends... Awsome ride... congrats and good luck!
safety course is always a good idea...
As for the clutch question, there may be a difference between neutral, or in gear with clutch dis-engaged, as long as the bike moves I would think it okay! The better test is while the bike is idling, does the bike wanna pull, or does the idle speed change if you hold clutch in and put in gear? bein brand new, you can always double check with dealer...
