New guy introducing himself

Whats up all? Just found the site and joined, I figured I say hi. My name is Gene, and have been on bikes since 5. Grew up racing (and breaking bones of coarse) Used to ride "rockets" and as I got older I tried to get more responsible, last ride was a ZRX1100 (half-rocket). Anyways, like I said I'm getting grown up now and also the wife wouldn't get anywhere near the back seat of the ZRX. So I decided if I was going to slow down a bit, I'd do it in style. New ride is a 2004 Road Glide. I can't believe what I was missing, so relaxed and enjoyable, plus she now will ask me to take her for a ride! I made a lot of friends on the ZRX page I still hang with,even though they say I turned to the "dark side". I hope to do the same here. I also hope to get some tips and advice.

so far so good, now I just need a few mods. Maybe more power, custom paint, more speakers, and oh yeah MORE CHROME!

Welcome to the forums from the Arizona Highlands. Congrats on the Road Glide and welcome to the dark side. [sm=vader1.gif] The usual first mods are SE air cleaner, SE II slip-ons, and rejet or remap. Pics? We're crazy about pics.

Alredy did the SE- k&n + Rinehart true duals, nice sound and a little better performance. Also had to add the backrest for the little lady. Which brings me to my next project-- use the #2 speaker selection for another set of speakers. I like the look of the bike with just the backrest, instead of going with the tour pack, but would love 2 more speakers. Thanks for the welcome guys
