Default Another newbie

Howdy, y'all! Found this site this morning at work while waiting for stuff to happen. Joined and posted a question in one of the Tech forums already. After several years of riding a goldwing, I finally took the plunge a couple of years ago and bought my first hog - a 1996 Electra Glide Ultra Classic - and I haven't regretted a minute of it. Most comfortable bike I've ever ridden. Anyway, just posted here to say "Hello", and I'm looking forward to having a place to share info and good times.
