Hello all,
Been lurking for awhile and decided to get on board. Bought my 1st HD in early 2012 with a hopped up 2009 nightster. Really enjoy that little bike. The HD bug ate me alive that summer. I needed MORE MILES! In early 2013, I bought a 2012 Road King w/ a full stage 1. Last summer I started putting real miles under my belt and the wife jumped on my nightster to get her own freedom.
Right now, the bikes are sleeping and it's 16 degrees outside. Can't wait for spring!
Thanks for having me, and thank you for all the knowledge you all have shared.
