227. I may have told you - I have been riding since 9/03.
This HD is my first and only bike and I have 27K+ on it. I'm on my fourth rear tire and second front. I bought the bike strictly on looks, since I didn't know anything about bikes, and had a friend drive it home. I took the MSF Basic Rider course that weekend and was on the bike the following Tuesday, albeit slowly and a little nervous.

Since then I have put V&H pipes on it, bought the tour pack for the back, got new seats, and a little extra chrome. I don't like the look of total chrome. Since it is a Heritage Classic is has lots of black leather with chrome dots. So, the general look is black with chrome accent all over. The chrome dots run down the tank panel, across the side of the two-up seat and down along the saddle bags. I also bought the Howard's Horns air horns for the left side. Down here in South FL, there are so many drivers with bad hearing, and eye sight, I make all the noise I can. The horns have saved my life many times.
