Default Got my first bike: HD XL 1200N

Finally, I have been waiting for a long time to finally get a bike.

I took the MSC about two weeks ago and had a great time, picked up the skills really quick and then went out the next day and got the bike.

I've put on about 250 miles over the last two weeks and the mod bug as already bit me. Ended up purchasing a set of V&H black short shots today along with the SE Heavy Breather, HD Race Tuner, 105th derby cover, white walls, and diamond black grips/pegs.

While this is my first bike I have been around them my whole life. Got Willie G's autograph at around age 12 and went to a few super rally's in Europe as well as the 100th in Milwaukee. When I came back from my last trip to Iraq in NOV I decided I had to finally take the beginers course and get my bike...glad I did.

Well here are the pictures, parts not installed yet since I am waiting for them to come in and the dealer is going to put them on so it is under the warranty.

Now I can go to the 105th with a bike!!
