Default New Guy from California

Hey all just became a member do to the fact I just bought my first Harley and this looks like good info here! Iam 44 years old and have had 31 motocycles but never a Harley or any other cruiser for that matter.I am very happy with my new toy! I got a 09 Road Glide after 4 test rides of other tours that Harley built the RG was for me. I have been personalizing it like one of my old Hot Rods and having a blast.
