Just wanted to say "Howdy!"

I picked up my new '05 XL883 Standard yesterday. Got such a good deal I simply couldn't pass it up. Love the new 883. I sold my last 883 forty years ago this year. It was my third Harley and by far the best at that time. Then I got into other bikes, mostly BMW's and big Honda's. Now I'm getting old and the new Sportster is probably my last bike. The big tourers like my Gold Wing are just getting too darned heavy for me. I hope I enjoy this Sportster as much as I did the old one. So far, so good!
