old Harley rider from the AMF days, finally back on a hog after a 25 year break in service. First H-D was a 1976 Sporty and last was a 1978 FLH. I am now a proud new owner of a 2006, FLHTC. Rode down to Bikefest on a friends Heritage Soft Tail with no intention of buying anything. Good credit and temptation resulted in my riding home with a really big grin on my face. Life is good!
