Default New Guy/First Harley :)
Hey all,

Just wanted to intro myself and say I'm looking forward to learning alot here from you all about my new bike.

I'm 43, married, wm...Prior experience is 33,000 miles onYamaha V-Star 1100 here in So Cal. I'm a daily rider/commuter year-round and a true fanatic. I only drive a car when forced to by bad weather or having to haul something big from the store (that I can't get the wife to do for me).

I just got an '05Electra Glide Classic and I'm tickledpink to learn all I can about these bikes and get to know you all here.

Welcome. I also ride everyday to work on my EG Ultra. I have 2 offices and I get paid to ride a Harley between them. I just bought the biggest air horn that Howard makes to help me wake up the sleepy drivers. I put 17,000 miles on my first year. Have fun.
