Thumbs up long time lurker

I have been reading this forum for months and felt I should join just to say thanks. Finally got back on a bike after 28 years of career and kid raising. Used to ride a lot , Sturgis a couple of times in the 70,s. Thanks to my nephew allowing me to ride his Harley last fall my love for bikes was rekindled. So found a 2009 Electra Glide Classis with low miles. From this forum have learned to get my seat redone at Mean city cycles (done) which fork deflectors to install (done, both forks and the one in front of the tank) where to get the best deal on rain gear (done) and lots of other info. So again I say thank you
