Default Another newbie from Ohio

Hey, another newbie from Ohio here. I just picked up my first Harley last week! It's a 2003 Sporty 883 with a few customizations and I'm in love. She's actually my second bike - I had a Kawasaki Vulcan as my first bike. I got a great trade-in deal at the local HD dealer and I haven't looked back since! Even my wife likes it, and usually she couldn't care less about this kind of stuff

I'm sure I'll be poking around for advice once I get to working on her. Until then, keep the shiny side up!

-Maestro
