Just picked up a 2013 300

Hey all, just got a decent deal on a 2013 300 (non-ABS) with about 13k miles on it. I've only owned cruisers before this. A 2007 Suzuki Boulevard M50, and a 1983 Honda Magna V45. So riding this thing has been a lot of fun compared to those two.

It is in desperate need of new tires, which are on their way right now, a headlight bulb, and the left fork seal looks like it's leaking. So my biggest decision right now is to decide if I want to try to tackle that one myself or not. I'm a fairly confident DIY'er, but I am always apprehensive of screwing things up. Also I have four kids and a full time job, which doesn't leave a ton of time for tinkering on my toys. I also don't want to pay an arm and a leg to have a shop do it! I found a decent write up here on how to do it, just trying to build up the confidence to do it myself. It rides just fine right now, so I can wait till winter sets in before doing it, so I should have the whole winter to take my time on it.

Anyway, just thought I'd introduce myself.
