Default Hello from Arizona

Hello from Arizona. Just picked up a new to me 2002 FXDWG! I have had several metrics over the years and finally got the opportunity to get a Harley. This thing rocks. A little different to my other whips, but damn is that throaty thunder fun. My Dyna has 7500 on the clock, and came with a detachable winscreen, ghost brackets with bags, led blinkers, upgraded HD pegs, highway bars, Screamin Eagle II slip-ons, and a ton of chrome. The site has been a huge help so far, gettin all the info needed to do a fluid service and spark plugs(my service manual is on the way).

I am lookin at maybe lowering it a bit, just for looks. Gonna put some 16" or 14" apes on. Figure out a better license bracket set-up. And some custom paint down the road. I want to address the stock seat as well, either a aftermarket or maybe knocken out a custom pan w/tooled seat.

A set of white walls to replace the stocker Dunpops. And polishing my fork lowers up a bit. Some new grips should just about round it up for now.

Forgot, I picked up the K&N breather today while at the $tealership in Bellemont while getting an oil filter and plugs. I don't normally spread things out like this, just nailing down the 5 post count to be able to see pics. I do a lot more searching and reading than posting usually. Thanks for all the good info in the site, I have found most of the questions I have on issues and stuff I want to change.
Later,
Nevada
