I've purchased my first bike two years ago. I never road but hung out with many that do. So I my wife said if you gunna do...do it! So I purchased my first bike and then took a class about a two months later. I don't recommend purchasing a bike before taking the class...just a little advice. The class helped so much.
Anyway like I said I never road a bike before and didn't know a lot about them but know I'm hooked. Unfortunately, I usually only ride on the weekends when there isn't much family stuff going on but I get my time in and now I wish I would have went "bigger" like my friends suggested.
I've been reading threads on HDForms.com for about a year and as I was sittin here after gettin back from a nice ride through mountains and enjoying a cold one and thought it was a good time to join in the fun.

Thanks, I really like but know my wife, who was really interested in it before has now gotten on it and enjoys it but she is uncomfortable. I've tried a few different seats without sucess so I'm assuming something bigger would help. Additionally, I won't get rid of the Sportster..nothing wrong with having two bikes.
