Default The New Kid

Hey everyone, as of yesterday, I now own a 1972 FLH 1200. It's my first bike. So far only problems are blinkers (flashers need to be replaced), odometer (stuck?), and the front brake (needs to be bled I'm assuming). Easy enough fixes. Anyway, I've been looking around and reading here for the past week and this seemed like a good place to hook up with. Thank you in advance to anyone who will help me with any questions I'm sure I'll have! Regards, - Danny
