Default 1st Harley

Just pulled the trigger yesterday on my first Harley, a 2007 XL1200C with only 1100 miles. Got it for way less than book value from a motivated seller. Too good of a deal to pass up.

Once the weather warms up, I'm really looking forward to doing all the routine maintenance and getting it ready for the riding season!
