I plan on taking the rider safety course in the spring as soon as I can schedule it. Currently, they don't have the schedule posted due to bad riding weather it being Upstate NY and all. Before then I'm going to take the bike in for service it has 43000 miles on it I'm not sure everything was kept up with. Thank you for the warm welcome.

Congrats. At this point the Drifter is a vintage bike which is great and terrible at the same time. The 1500 is a heavy bike, so you need to start slowly and get some experience. If available take a bike instruction/safety course. An older bike needs TLC, so make sure you stay on top of the maintenance. There are a bunch of knowledgeable people here and a lot of materials to help you if needed.

Welcome aboard. Stay safe.

Cheers.

Hello,

I just wanted to introduce Myself. I have just bought a 2000 1500 Drifter as it is my first motorcycle ever and I have never ridden a day in my life I am really looking forward to starting the adventure. My wife started riding a Can-Am spyder last year and loves it I knew it wouldn't be long until I had to get something to join her on. When I saw this bike in the ad for sale I passed on 10 different HD and Hondas for this one.
