Well, I plan on getting my bike in a week or so. Its a scary thing really. Harleys are a huge financial committment. I feel like Im gonna get married all over[:D]. Butterflies to say the least.

Why is it worth it??

I need some encouragement here.

Start the list please

This is the bike, its a Nighttrain Softail. Was gonna get a streetbob but this one just did it for me.

  I called one of my buddies. He said he will take it off the lot for me since he has been riding recently. I hate to back down from my own personal fears but in this situation, I think its the smart thing to do.

  Keeps ya out of trouble! Seriously, catching a divider line wrong changing lanes at 70mph can, and will, give you a shimmy from hell, panic and you're eating asphalt. Stabilizer won't let it happen.
  Wait till you got it wrung out,power poles looking like fence posts going by, and then remember you have another gear![:0] Ride it like an old lady until you have the feel of it. Night Trains are light fast bikes as far as Harleys go, and the Softail frames handle different than a swing arm. Enjoy, and get some pics posted!

  Congrats on your new "baby"! By the way, did you get the optional oil leaks or do they still come standard? [;)]
  
  
  This is a misconception. Harleys don't "leak oil", they are just marking their territory [8D]
