I guess I'm a little different from most. My first Harley was a FLH. It was a old, used up POS. Everything that could be wrong with it was wrong. I was young, dumb, and poor. On a good day it ran without something breaking. Of course that was a lot of years ago and it was my bike for my teen years. My second was a new Sportster, which carried me through my 20's. A great bike that I rode the wheels off of. Then on to FXE's for my 30's, then FXD for my 40's, Now I've been a RoadKing rider for the past 11 years. If I ever get another bike, it may be a street glide, but I'm not even thinking of anything but what I have.

 

I went from a "07 Nomad to a '09 ElectraGlide. Put 23,000 in three years on the Nomad. Plan on at least that w/ the EG.

 

I've always been told that I have some of the habits of an older man all my life. I'm 32 - I have owned several bikes, but I'm picking up my first Harley this afternoon - a '06 Ultra Classic. It is a bit of a mature man's bike, for sure, but I love the way they ride and my wife can't whine that her *** hurts anymore with that big LaZboy in the back that she sits on, haha. Definitely my first touring bike, hopefully not my last.

 

I am two weeks into my first Harley. So far enjoying it but still getting used to the differences.

 

Bought a 2010 glide last September.....came from and still have a 1991 Fatboy.....riding my Glide is like sitting on my couch , I love it

 

My FLHTK that I bought last September is my first Harley touring bike - and my first Harley in general.

First Harley when I was 17...old Pan, had to hide it from my parents, those were the days

 

Traded in my 2009 Sporty 883 low TODAY for an FLHP. Made a 6 hour jaunt Labor Day from western New York to northwestern Ohio and I'm still trying to crawl out of next week, let alone get my hearing back visa vi the V & H short shots.

It's like being on two different planets. I will say, tho, that the sporty, it just really had the 'soul', ya know? I was all pure bike. Purchased August 27, 2009. After this past Monday's journey, pure soul only goes so far and, I need my health. This Road King bike has been like an old shoe since driving it home this afternoon. My first afternoon with my first touring Harley.
