Hello everyone,

My name is George and I am from southern California.

I am a very happy owner of a 2000 Road King. I picked her up this past Saturday from a local dealer with 12,500 miles on her. I have not been able to take her out yet as previous owner installed a Mustang seat and it is just a tad too tall for me. I need to explore my options on how to get the bike or seat lowered by about 1 1/2" for me to reach.

This is my first street bike but I have ridden dirt bikes.

I am looking forward to learning from all of the experienced riders on this board.

Here she is...
