Hi, I just purchased a used 2002 FLHRSEI Screamin Eagle Road King. I haven't even got to throw a leg over it yet. I just found this site yesterday and it appears I should be able to find a lot of useful information on here. Any words of wisdom and advice will be appreciated. This is not my first Harley, but it is my first CVO bike. I had a very customized Super Glide before that I sold a few years ago. I am looking forward to wasting a lot of time on this site (in cold weather only of course).

:welcome_005: Jbbrown73, lot's to learn here :bananarock:

Wow, I am very impressed with this forum already! I have a lot of replies within 24 hours, that is great. I appreciate all of the great words of encouragement. I am all too familiar with the money pit that is a Harley, I completely tore my Dyna down to the frame and started over so I hope I don't have to do as much to this one, but I can't leave anything alone anyway.
So, to answer all of your questions, I bought a 2002 purple SERK. It has 36,000 miles on it. I haven't taken any pics yet since it is actually still in the crate (just got delivered late yesterday). I got some history on it from the dealership it was traded to. It was originally from Austin, TX. I spoke with the Harley dealer in Austin and they were familiar with the bike, it had all of it's service done there. Always used synthetic fluids and all service done according to schedule. The previous owner evidently liked to take nice long road trips so most of the miles are highway miles. I got it for less than $15,000 tax, title, license, delivered to my door.
With the miles that's on it is there anything I should be looking out for or need to do?

With such a good price, you must have a suitcase of cash left to buy all the stuff you're gonna want :2vrolijk_21:
Welcome.

Welcome aboard JB. Man the SERKers are showing up in droves now! Good to see. I wouldn't worry about the mileage, but I'd have the cam chain tensioner shoes checked before you think about putting on any serious mileage yourself! Good luck with the bike and enjoy the site! Hoist! 8)

Four words: Cam chain tensioner shoes
Welcome to the site! :drink:

Hi there JB and welcome to the best CVO forum in the world :2vrolijk_21:
Interesting that everybody is recommending you have the cam chain tensioner shoes checked. I put 45,000 miles on my Heritage with no problems and only know of one guy in these parts that ever had a problem.
Still better to be safe than sorry as they say.
Keep ya knees in da breeze.
