Default New Harley owner

Hello all. I’m new here, and a new Harley owner. Just picked up a 96 FLSTN. I love the bike, and still trying to get to know her. I haven’t owned a motorcycle in about 20 years, so I won’t be getting on her until I finish the safety course. Anyway, here’s a pic of both my girls (the human one is my daughter) and the poor Saab that had to pull her all the way home!
