Hi. I wanted to introduce myself to the community. I am a new owner of a HD XL1200X (48). I have been riding dirt forever, but this is my first street bike. Been loving the experience, as has my wife and daughter who have come along for the occasional two-up rides.

I wanted to thank all of you posters and enthusiasts out there! Your information and experience is a great resources for those of us that are new to the HD experience (and their nuances).

Welcome from the Space Coast of FL (and a resident of Lakeway, TX). I started out on dirt myself (now I am old as dirt). Enjoy the ride!
