Default New Hoosier here

Got my endorsement in 1985. Ridden every year, I have owned three Honda's and now two HD's.
A new 1985 Honda Nighthawk
A 1984 Honda Interstate
A 2005 Honda VTX 1300

I still have the 883 standard I bought new in 1995. Runs better than new.

Just picked up a 1997 Harley Fat boy in great shape.

Looking forward to lurking the forum.

Welcome from North Beach, FL., USA!

Just in case you have not done this and I recommend this only as a suggestion....

Add a Signature Line in your USER set up for your bike year, model, and all the letters that Harley recognizes it with.
Others will see it at the bottom which
enables them to know your exact model if you ever ask a question.
All Harleys are not the same and year and all the model letters make a big difference.


Also, add an Avatar of your favorite shot in the USER setup for the small picture others will see in the top left corner of your post.

It's also very helpful to read the 'HDF Site Rules' listed at the top of the new member area.

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!!
