Default Noob !
Just picked up my first cruiser and its a 92 Electra Glide Classic. Took it out for my first ride on it today after getting new tires put on it. I've been riding sport bikes for several years and finally decided to make the jump to something more comfortable. So far i love the bike and how it rides. Just gotta make those pipes sing a little louder, or a lot louder. Looks to be tons of useful info around these parts so i'll be around a lot learning as much as possible. Now let the customization begin!!
