Hi All -
Bought my '06 Heritage last winter and been following the boards here for quite a while - figured it's time to sign up. The information I have found on the forum has been so helpful already. So far I have changed the starter, swapped out bars with internal wiring, tire change, SaggyBags, and maintenance. I have already saved big $$$ doing things myself - even with all of the tools I had to add to my collection. Thanks to all of the members for so much information.

Ride on,

Chris

My Heritage:
V&H BSS
SE Stage 1 AC
Burly Cruiser Bars
Barnett Platinum cables
GotSaggyBags (new addition - not installed in the picture. What a difference)
