Hi Guys and Gals

I am not a new HD owner, but it was the first time I bought a bike from a dealer. I have been a trike rider for about 40 years, but my first two were a rebuilt 45 Police trike and then a custom iron head Sportster. The problem was they were both hardtails and back injury stopped my riding days. Thank God those days are gone and I purchased a 2017 HD Freewheeler about two weeks ago. I now am looking forword to spending as much time as I can making up for lost time. I live in Stratford, Connecticut and the weather has finally turned warm. It's great to be back in the wind. Thanks for letting me in the forum.

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!!

Welcome from North Beach, FL., USA!

Just in case you have not done this.

Add a Signature Line in your USER set up for your bike year, model, and all the letters that Harley recognizes it with so others see at the bottom of all your post. This enables others to know your exact model if you ever ask a question.

And an Avatar of your favorite shot in the USER set up for the small picture others will see in the top left corner of your post.


​​Your all set.... Enjoy the ride! ______________
