Default Newbie intro
Hey Y'all! Joined the HD Forum today because I recently picked up a 2008 FLHTCU...been away from the bike world for a long time (kids and such) but my wife and I figured it was time to realize our long term dream of owning a Harley Davidson that we can cruise the highways together on.

I've already learned a lot from the good folks on the forum here and will extend a humble thank you for everyone's wisdom and humor. Looking forward to learning more.

Kevin from Iowa (heretofore RUBBER CHICKEN)
