Hi All,
Been lurking for a couple of weeks while I researched and made up my mind. Just purchased my first HD, a 2006 Street Glide that was VERY well set up by the previous owner. To call it "previously worshiped" is an understatement. Knew I had to have it as soon as I walked up to it. I'll get specs and pics up as soon as I get all the paperwork done and it's sitting in my garage.

My g/f has already had two Dynas under her belt, and I'd be lying if I said she had NOTHING to do with this purchase. She was more giddy over the bike than I was at the end of negotiations.

Love the forums here, and hope to ride with y'all in the future. Looking forward to my new life as a Harley owner.
