Just bought my first Harley. I picked up a 2005 Ultra with a 95" big bore and a screamin eagle 6 speed. I'm in the process of personalizing it to be my own.

And if you're lucky it'll stop snowing before May... remember last year? My Ultra's in the living room in pieces, hope to get it back on wheels by April. Garage ain't heated...

Sure don't have much snow in that pic, been covered here for a while, about 100 miles NE of you, just south of the cities. Roads up here are covered with salt.
