Hello all

Finally my first Harley; picked up a 2013 XL1200C last month. Was off the saddle for more than three years so took couple of week's riding to get used to it...and I guess I was getting attached to the lazy cage feeling of 4 wheels...

Quite happy with the bike and still figuring things out. Trying to make it bit more comfier along the way so I can ride to and fro between GC and Brissy for work. Having a bad spine problem doesn't help, but getting there

I will have 101 questions about the bike but first thought of introducing myself.

 

That's my bike:

 

 

 

Welcome mate

welcome,enjoy the site and the ride

Welcome to the forum.

Nice ride.

Welcome mate. That's a mixture of bikes, for sure.

Welcome and a great looking bike.

Welcome, and has been said, nice bike.

Thanks
@Wimbo, it sure is...and the Sportster feels so different! In my head I wanted something with low rpm, cruisey... but the Sportster loves the revs and that's fun as well. Want to tweak some things to make it bit more comfortable for me. I feel pain around front upper thigh on long trips specially at 110 speeds. I think increasing the rear shocks to 12.5 from 11.5 should ease my legs a bit and maybe a Mustang seat to compliment that. Not a fan of the stock handle bar either. Want to get mirror extenders for the stock ones so I can see things behind. Oh and am keeping an eye on V&H 2-2 Big radius
