Hello Everyone

I am new to the forum scene and am looking forward to reading post and adding some of my own. I do not currently own a Harley but should be purchasing one very shortly. The one I am looking at is a 1991 Dyna Glide Sturgis. Bike is in what I would consider fair condition(needs tires, has a lot of chrome pitting do to being stored close to chlorine, needs new paint, taillights and has an oil leak coming from top area of front head I believe it is cracked because with bike hot I can see oil bubbling inside top 3 fins on head). I am still doing research to figure out what to offer. I have been a mechanic for nearly 30 yrs and have tons of tools (just never worked on motorcycles). Any input would be appreciative.
