Default First time harley owner
I just bought my first harley 2 weeks ago (2012 road king standard) and all i can say is WOW! I love this bike its so smooth and fun to ride. I can't stop riding even when it's 40 degrees out. I wish i would have switched from honda years ago. The fit and finish on this bike is second to none. Well thanks for listening to my rant. Lol
Oh i wanted to say hi also

I am laughing here when I read your post. I felt exactly the same last year with my '11 RK. Congrats and get over the break in miles quickly so you can really enjoy it. Hook up a lead for heated gear and you can ride all year as I and many here do.

Congrats!!! Enjoy your new ride. I had a 03 RKC put 65,000 trouble free wonderful miles on it before I sold it to buy an EG Ultra. I don't think you will ever stop smiling...
