Hello everyone. My name is Brandon and a few weeks ago I bought my very first Harley. Its a 2018 Low Rider that had 560 miles on it so it was basically new. I am absolutely loving it. Unfortunately the weather took a turn so I haven't been able to get out and ride yet this week.
A little more about me; I'm married and have three kids. My oldest is in college and my youngest is still in daycare. I'm a hobbies machinist and have been building out a machine shop in my garage. Now I work as a professional IT nerd. From Jan 2002 to Dec 2012 I was an IT nerd in the Air Force.
I'll stop there for fear of making this sound like a dating app profile.

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, a rough idea of your range per tank, 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, and upwards of 230+ on trips. Good Luck!!
