Hello V twin forum members. I just got my first motor cycle and have very little experience or knowledge. I got a 02 sportster 1200 custom from a friend and am just here for any and all advice, need to knows, dos and do nots for riding and maintaining and repairs that I plan to do myself. I have mechanical knowledge and have common sense most of the time although I do have my moments. Thanks in advance and I look forward to getting to know you

Congratulations on your first bike. It is not a big bike and they handle easily. I would encourage you to take a motorcycle safety course. It can be very valuable to you, a first time rider. Be methodical and learn how to brake safely. It's important! Always assume the other guy is going to do something stupid. (I'm talking about the people in cars and trucks, and also other motorcyclists)
