72 years old. Saw my first Harley with the saddle bags in 1966 at a friends house and said I'd have one someday. After raising a family and doing a tour in Iraq (gov employee @ 58yrs old) I was finally able to buy one. Gotta be better ways to buy one. 2011 Heritage and when the wife asked what color, I said, well Black, It's the only color Harley makes. In my opinion. BEST money I ever spent!
