New to the world of motorcycles and have joined the forum to get more information about Harleys from the experienced folks.

I fell into a 2010 Road King Classic that I won in a charity raffle. I've never ridden a motorcycle before, and yes, I know it's not the best bike for a new rider. I'm in no hurry to go riding around crazy and I'm scheduled for a Motorcycle Safety Class at the end of the month.

From there I plan on taking it slow and doing alot of parking lot practice before hitting the road. If it doesn't work out then I will give up that bike and move on to something a little smaller.

I'm hoping to get alot of good information and feedback form the forum.

What a great prize to win. You are taking the right first step in getting into a motorcycle safety class. Take it slow enough and get some miles under your belt and you may decide to keep the Roak King. Enjoy riding and welcome from New Mexico.
