Default Newbie !
Hey everybody. New to the forum. I have owned a nighster for two summers. However this not the reason I joined. I have recently bought a 1990 Electra Glide as a second bike. I love the new-to-me bike and am excited to start doing some wrenching on and will need all the help I can get. You probably won't here from me to much cause I am only here to discuss and research mechanical issues I am sure every question I have has been answered before so I will search before I ask and if I do ask just point me in the right direction. Thank you all very much for all the info you have shared.

So Evo or Twin ? Just kidding ! Till the Wheels Fall Off Brothers !
