Carpe Diem Brothers and Sisters! I'm a new rider owning a 2004 Road King for about a year now. This forum has provided so much information to me aiding my journey to become a rider. I can honestly say that the members here have forgotten more about motorcycles than I will ever learn so luckily there is a "search" function . Over the years, I've played around with other peoples dirt bikes so had some basic skills and decided to make the leap to owning a motorcycle. In traditional Harley fashion, I only consulted my conscience (we were in agreement) and my wife found out once the bike was safely home and in the garage (story for another time and notice I didn't reference ex-wife). Thanks to this forum, I have the best safety gear, passed the HD Riding Academy with Flying colors, and can ride with confidence. I love the seat time and can't wait to continue to live the experience of life without a cage. Here is a photo of a ride at Gulf Islands National Seashore
Welcome from Spartan Country, Michigan! I tell a lot of new comers to the forum to get: Factory Service manual and the Parts manual. Get a three ring binder and record all your maintenance, repairs, accessories, etc. This will be a great reminder of what was done when. And great material to pass along to the new owner should you sell and upgrade. Also know how large your fuel tank is, and record your fuel usage. I have an app called Simply Auto that I record all my fuel used. I use the odometer and use the fuel gage as reference only. I reset the odometer to zero on fill ups, and I know I can safely get 200 miles on a tank on around town riding. Good Luck!!
