Default Howdy from Middle Tennessee
Hey, new member and new rider here. Just bought an '07 Road King Classic this week, and I love it!

My son gave me the three-day course in Nashville (www.learntoride.org) this summer as a birthday present. He'd bought a Harley earlier in the summer. Well, the course got me hooked, and I rode my son's Harley some here and there as I decided what type of bike to get for myself.

After considering Victory and some other Harley models, I arrived at the conclusion that a Road King would be a good choice for me ( I'm 6'8"). Found a nice '07 Road King Classic with under 10,000 miles on it this week.

Anyway, glad to have a Harley and hope we have some more nice weather this fall so that I can enjoy it before cold weather sets in.
