Thumbs up Back On The Road

After being "Hogless" for 5 years, I finally decided it was time to ride again. After looking at many bikes, I finally purchased an 06 Street Glide that is completely stock and only had 2600 miles. I picked it up yesterday and was able to put on 200 miles this weekend. I really like it and realized how much I missed riding. Now I got to start thinking about pipe/intake combinations. It is way too quiet with stock pipes! I love having the stereo. Never rode a bike with one until now. This is my third Harley. I had a 95 Sportster (1200), A 01 Road King Classic that I bought new and sold in 04 to finish the new house that we had built, and now the "Glide". I look forward to gaining alot of knowledge from this site.
