This is my first bike.

 

First time owning a touring bike. Bought an 06 SG and after riding a dyna I thought that I had made the biggest mistake of my life but after a little time on the road, I wouldn't have any other bike. Still getting use to the different feel but now the dyna is gone I love it.

 

In November, I made a huge jump, going from 30+ years of metric standards and cruzers (kz650, kz1000 pol, v45 magna, vs1400glpw) to my 1st HD, and damn - a bagger to boot!

The 1999 1400 intruder (bought new) was ~500# on the curb, just slightly less than the 899# of the 2010 FLHTCU

I had to re-learn slow speed handling (especially 2up), but now understand why my dad just kept rebuilding his custom chopper (at least as old as I am) ! Mine certainly aint no hardtail, but it does have a personality - something none of my other bikes have had.

I kept it stock until the 1k checkup, and then had stage 1 & reduced reach seat put on - but it really needs 2+ bars (up and back) to save the back/neck... I'm not overly fond of the reduced reach seat, but do need a bit more leg bend on the ground for comfort backing into the garage (slight uphill)

-- any one need an intruder ?

 

Not only is this my first HD touring bike I've owned. It is the only other motorcycle I have ever ridden besides the Honda 250 I rode in the motorcycle safety class I took 2 days before I bought my 2009 Street Glide.

 

My first, Second and third was a touring Harley. One RKC and two Ultra Classics.

 

Bought my first ever Harley a 2009 Sunglo Red Smokey Gold Ultra Classic with 11K back in Dec 2010.

 

Got my first touring last June, and I love it! The GF and I are so much more comfortable on trips. Did Sturgis last year, and looking to maybe take a ride around Lake Superior this year.

 

5 years on a sportster, 10 years on a fatboy and I just bought my first ultra, picking up march 17. Hoping that its not snowing that day!

 

Going from a 2008 FXD to a 2011 Road King Classic, being shipped on the 8th. Can't wait.
