Hi everyone…..recently (like a week ago) I traded in my 2013 Road King Classic on a 2024 Street Glide. The Road King was my first and only Harley. Had it since new and I loved that bike. However, I went to the local dealership to buy an oil filter and ended up making the deal for the new SG. Very unplanned. One of two 2024’s left on the floor. This one was a demo and was recently being rode by one of the dealership employees. Sold as brand new with full warranty and it’s immaculate. I could not pass it up, especially with the deal I was given. Anyway, hello and safe riding to you all. Road King then Street Glide:

Welcome from Spartan Country, Michigan!
I tell a lot of new comers to the forum to get: Factory Service manual and the Parts manual. Take to an office supply store and have them put a spiral binder in place of the glued binder. That will let the manuals lay flat on your bench. 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.

24SGlide is the Kings Court rock club still in Rockford? I lived in Sleepy Hollow (close to Dundee) back in the late 70's.
