Do you plan on buying your dream bike or do you just like looking at it?

You can simply appreciate the bike (good choice by the way!) or you can hop on and give 'er a spin. If you decide to ride, I'm pretty sure you'll be hooked :-)

Oh I will be buying one next spring for sure, currently just droolin and anoying the sales reps down at the dealer. I went in looking at the street glides, but when i sat on the lo, it felt like my recliner at home, so it didn't take much to shift my attention. I have never driven a motorcycle, so going to take it slow, get my permit, take the beginners safety course, and ride a friends off road jump bikes for a bit, then once the weather breaks I will be shopping instead of looking.

Also thanks for the warm welcome from all of you.

Welcome from Central Mississippi. Rider course is a good plan. Would be good if you had a friend with a smaller bike that would allow you to take the course before you get your new bike, nothing like a little saddle time!!!!!Ride safe!!
