Newbie Question: Screamin Eagle

RE: Newbie Question: Screamin Eagle
Thanks again guys. I'd love to deal on an 08 right now, but I'm currently not working and can't afford it. I'm in graduate school and have a good job lined up starting in 3 months.
I love Rockers, Super Glides, Night Trains, Deuce's (coming back in 09 maybe?).. Not sure what I'll finally settle on!
Well, I'm off to work for free for 8 hours.

Just bumped again. Try Craigslist before the Stealer if "taking it slow". I got a wonderful bike there before this.

Thanks again guys. I'd love to deal on an 08 right now, but I'm currently not working and can't afford it. I'm in graduate school and have a good job lined up starting in 3 months.
I love Rockers, Super Glides, Night Trains, Deuce's (coming back in 09 maybe?).. Not sure what I'll finally settle on!
Well, I'm off to work for free for 8 hours.

BoneCrusher, nice bike! Do you think a first time rider could be safe on a Deuce/softail? Or should I go with something smaller? The Harley salesman says I'll be fine starting with a "big bike"... Though I know some people recommend learning on something lighter/less powerful. My problem is I'm 6'1 so I don't fit very well on smaller bikes.

RE: Newbie Question: Screamin Eagle
you have to learn how to judge a salesman, because EVERYTHING you buy is from a salesman. Just somethin' the books never teach.

RE: Newbie Question: Screamin Eagle
Just one chick's experience...
I can't tell you the number of people who said "I'm so glad you didn't get a Sporty" when I bought my first bike (a Deluxe). I had several skilled riding buddies who shared their thoughts that new riders buy the Sportster because it's the cheapest Harley, but that it's not a beginner bike. After riding one, I would agree - I found the Sporty much more top-heavy than my Deluxe, and I feel a lot more stable on a wider front tire.
Good luck with whatever you end up getting!
