I blame my wife. She convinced me to trade my Heritage and Sportster for a 2017 Freewheeler in Black Quartz. 2,100 miles, one prior owner. Luggage rack, windshield and windshield tool bag. Now her Freewheeler will have a mate. Too bad winter is approaching. We already had some snow mixed with rain today. Oh well, the off season will be time to customize it.

That's a sweet looking ride. I do love the Freewheeler styling. I think HD did a terrific job on this and you should have some great rides in a few months. Congrats on your find.
 
CD makes good lighting. I've used their LED lights for years. Long before the motor company did. I can remember having to use a solid state p-n-p load equalizer from Kuryakyn to keep the turn signals from hyper flashing. Never could figure out what took HD so long to bring decent LED products to market. IMHO, their seats still are not as good as Mustang or Corbin.
 
My new ride was delivered around 10:30 this morning. I got right to work making it mine. I checked the oil, pumped up the shocks to 17 psi, hung my gremlin bell, put on front axle nut covers, changed the mirrors and grips, H-D MoCo chrome timer cover, a new shift peg, and an H4 LED for the headlight. I was going to install the CD luggage rack brake light until I found out it wasn't the right luggage rack. Oh well.

Took it out for its maiden voyage so we could get acquainted. I'm going to like it. Cranked it up to 90 mph on the highway - pretty smooth. Put on 32 miles in 43 degree weather. It is supposed to warm up a little this weekend into next so my wife and I will go for a ride together.
