Talking Memphis TN (Bartlett area)
Have always had an interest in motorcycles, but never purchased one. When my interest shifted from getting a sportbike to getting a cruiser, my wife got onboard and bought me boots at Christmas (surprise) and later MSF classes (big surprise) and a nice Willie G leather jacket over the summer for anniversary. Last weekend we purchased our first bike: 2014 Harley-Davidson Street Glide Special in blackened cayenne sunglo. I decided to go the touring route since we'd like to do some road trips after I have a few years of experience riding.

Grats man! I love that color! Post up some pics!

And welcome from a fellow Memphian. I'm in the county just north of Bartlett.

Good choice from sunny Florida. By the way, I used to live in Germantown, good food at the Sidecar next to Bumpus in Bartlett.

Congratulations on the new SG and welcome to the forum.

I visit Barlett from time to time. I used to love going there in the late 90s early 00s, but lately the shopping areas are a little crowded.

Which Harley Davidson do you use the most, Southern Thunder or Bumpus in Jackson?
