Birthday Test Ride Got Me - Hello from Atlanta
HD Forums,
Wanted to introduce myself. I'm new to the Harley world but looking forward to riding. I went out 'window shopping' for bikes on my birthday in March. Was looking for a GSXR 750 initially. But Harley has always been in the back of my mind. I have uncles that have ridden Harley's for years. Anyway, so I 'dropped by' a local harley dealer and was offered a test ride...it was all over from there. I was hooked.
Test rode a 2017 Street Glide...but just couldn't convince myself to spend $20k on a new bike just yet. So I picked up a used 2003 Electra Glide Ultra Classic. I've removed the Tour Pack so far and plan to do a few more things to it to make it more like a Street Glide for now.
Anyway, HD Forums came up alot during my search and I thought I'd join and share my experiences along the way and learn from other owners as well. I have a few projects I want to tackle in the first 90 days of ownership.
Drop me a line, looking forward to meeting new people and new riders in metro-Atlanta.

Welcome from Florida.
Wife and I are most likely heading to Tenn in July for the Rally in Cookeville. We tend to drive through Atlanta (Well the By pass). We will wave.
