hi everyone. I just bought my first Harley and love her. I bought a 2012 Street Glide in Harley Black (lol). Friends of mine call her a glidette cause they also have glides. Picked it up a week ago and already have 3000 kms on it (thinking that is about 1800 miles).
Love my new bike. I hav ebeen riding for a few years, had a Kawi Vulcan 800 before this one. Bought it used with 5000kms on it and today she has 77000 kms in 5 years, so yes I ride a bit. I live in Ottawa Ontario Canada so comparitively to some I have a short riding season but I do make the most of it when it is here.
Safe riding and shiny side up everyone.
