Who is riding Touring Harley for the first time?

Just bought my first American 2008 Ultra Classic about a month ago. I rode Hondas till now, still have my 1980 Goldwing that's been in the family since it was purchased new by my father. Going Harley is a whole different world entirely, from sound to ease of working on the bike. My first Harley related purchase after the bike itself was the Electrical and Service manuals, a wealth of information and boy does it answer a lot of questions about the bike. I highly recommend them both to anyone owning a Harley.
When I sit on the Honda I feel like a pretzel all twisted and mostly uncomfortable. Yeah, I know there is a 28 year difference between the two bikes, but the Hondas were made for smaller framed people. On a Harley you sit naturally upright and your feet have floorboards, not pegs to rest on.
I can't say enough good about Harley, what a bike!
Every time I worked on the Honda, I had to unbolt unrelated parts to get at the one I was trying to work on. That just isn't so with Harley, their foresight in engineering is outstanding. Also many parts from different years and bikes are interchangeable, try doing that with an import!
