Default New guy from Iowa

Hello. I've been riding for over 40 years now. everything from dirt [when I was younger] to street bikes, all sizes and all metric bikes.
This summer I picked up a 72 HD ironhead, great bike.
But just not enough.
Thursday I brought home a 2005 FLHRI 13K miles and OOHH MAN I love it.
Vivid Black w/hard bags, after market HD 2up seat, removeable sissy bar,
quick detach windsheild. And flame theme on the chrome addons [floorboards,foot controls,etc]. Think I'll continue with that theme on acouple of other parts.
Anyway glad to be here.
Oh ya I love this bike.
