Hello From Illinois
Just joined the forum a few minutes ago. My son moved back home from Okinawa Japan this year and brought a Fat Boy with him. The more I looked at the bike the more I was convinced I had to have one. Bought a 2010 Sportster 48 just because I liked the way it looked. After riding a few months decided I made a mistake and should have started a little bigger but wanted to wait a year to make sure. However, my work is taking me to England for 3 years so I made the leap this week to a 2011 Heritage Softail Classic. Can't wait to pick the new bike up (Sportster is parked until dealer delivers new bike-don't want anything to happen to it).

Thanks for the welcomes guys
Had the Ultra out yesterday for its 1st decent hit out in the tight twisty roads to the north of Sydney & was less than impressed with the rear suspension, because of the less than good road quality.
Turns out the air I put in the rear shocks, has a leak somewhere. Put some more air in & a hell of a lot better.
Off to the dealer to get that problem fixed for sure Grrrrrr
But the overall is, the more I ride it, the more I wonder why I haven't made this move earlier
