Default 1st Harley
Hello, Just joined about a week or so ago. I had been lurking for a while and decided to join. I baught a 2011 Wide Glide back in May of this year and love it. I have been riding for about 5 yrs or so but was on a sportbike had a 2003 Honda CBR600RR then baught a 2008 CBR600RR new liked them both fun bikes to ride but just had enough of that seen and just got to uncomfortable. Harleys have always been in the family so it was going to happen sooner or later. I actually wish I would have made the switch earlier!! Anyway my name is Chad and I will see you guys around. Stay safe!!
