Hello to Everyone, New to HD from WV
Hello Everyone,
I'm new to the forum and have a New to me 2006 Electra Glide Classic. I've ridden and raced a lot of things over the last 40+ years of riding. But this is my first Harley Davidson. Like a lot of people, I had the impression that Harley's were under powered and didn't handle. But I have to say that this is one of, if not the absolute best motorcycle I've ever had the privilege to just go out and ride. It's more nimble than I ever imagined, has more than enough torque to make up for the lack of top end HP and it's just plain fun. I can't remember the last time I've had such a grin on my face.
Thanks to everyone on here too. I was reading a lot before I signed up, and many of the posts helped me to decide on getting this bike.
