Default First Timer!!!

Hello All!!!
My name is Ron, I'm in Southern California and I just bought my First Harley! It's a 2007 Sportster. I got it from a friend of mine who was giving her up to buy a house. It's black and pretty much stock. I'm in the process of putting some black short shots on it. Other than that just getting used to riding. I've never owned a motorcycle till now but I'm already loving it! Looking forward to having this place to come for helpful advice, and useful knowledge.
Thanks,
Ron
