My first ever bike was an 04 FLHRP at age 49, I learned how to ride on that bike 10 years ago.

I hear ya. Picked up an 09 Ultra Classic last year after decades of Shadows and V Stars. Rode a friends SG for about 40 miles and the search immediately began the perfect HD bagger

First time two wheels ever on the open road. Spent last two riding seasons on a Can Am and put 18,000 miles on that thing.

September last year bought my 2014 Ultra Limited and put 3000 miles on her before the first snow flew. Can’t wait for spring.

I've had this 07 for a couple years, had a V-Star 1100 prior and just couldn't get it to the point where the wife was comfortable. This Road King is so smooth I keep checking the rear tire to make sure it isn't half flat.

In 2013, I inherited my late brother's 2004 Fat Boy. It felt huge to me. A reduced-reach seat helped a lot. It's a very smooth cruiser.
In Oct, 2017, I bought my first Harley; a used 2014 Electra Glide Police. It felt huge to me. Compared to the Fat Boy, the Electra Glide steers quicker, stops quicker, accelerates quicker and gives a better ride on bumpy roads. It's a very comfortable ride on the highway. I can ride it for hours and hours.
At the very end (mid-December), I took out the Fat Boy for a run to the gas station before placing it into storage for the winter. The Fat Boy felt small to me!

Bought my first Harley two weeks ago. 2018 Road Glide Special. So far haven’t had much riding time or decent weather. Road a metric for years and never thought I would spend this kinda money on a bike but I call this my forever bike. Now it’s time to spend even more on upgrades.
