You don't need to use PM's unless there is a private question you want to ask someone or to discuss. You will get the hang of things pretty quick, believe it or not. Use the search button, it will help a lot.

Welcome from NC/Va border!

Welcome from Bristol, England.

Try not to let computers, the Internet or the forum stress you out. Take it slow, 'try' to stay calm and it will gradually become more clear. Sure, you'll stumble around at first. Its a learning curve like any other, and like most, will be rewarding and a lot of fun if you persevere.

If and when you get stuck and cant figure it out yourself, ask for help as you have done. Most people here are friendly and helpful. Ignore any sacrastic responces you may get, everyone has a bad day now and then.

The Internet and to some degree the forum is littered with the use of abbreviations because it saves time. Personally I have a real mental block on abbreviations, but their meaning does eventually stick.

In case you havent stumbled upon this page already, the following link will take you to the forum index page. From there you can pretty much access all the different topic areas in the forum.

https://www.hdforums.com/forum/index.php

I hope this is of some help to you.

Enjoy the ride and stay safe.

Welcome from PA. The others here have given some good advice. Hang in there, it gets easier and the forum is well worth any beginning troubles you may have.

Hey welcome from sunny Alberta.

- when you log in, click the little box that says "keep me logged in"
- find a forum you like for example "General harley davidson chat" then set a favorite with your internet explorer.

That might make it a bit easier.
