Hello All! Great Forum!!
Ken from South Jersey.
Thanks to the Wife, I just got my first hog after 20 + years w/o a bike.
She's been pushin me for years. I'm so lucky!!
With 4 young kids, didn't think I'd find time for a while.
So I pulled the trigger on a 2013 FLHR Vivid Black Road King. Couldn't pass up the deals out there.
I started looking at 2-4 year old softail's and friends steered me to the King.
Didn't think i'd ever have a bagger, it's grown on me & now I'm lovin it!
Already started the mods with bars and pipes, don't like anything stock!
Can't wait to chrome!
