Default Woo Hoo...

This morning I made the LAST payment on my '14 Limited. FINALLY it's paid off. It's the most I've ever spent on a motorcycle. But no regrets. It's been a great bike. As of today I have 34,964 miles on it. My total cost of financing (principle and interest) was $34,267.64. So, not counting fuel and regular maintenance, that amounts to about $0.98 per smile/mile. Pretty cheap entertainment. Oh btw to the naysayers my payoff was good through 11/04.

Default Congratulation!

$.98 per mile/smile is a good deal. (Heck, can you even put a price on it?)

I remember the day(s) I got my '08 and '05 titles in the mail. Couple of the happier days I've ever had. So happy in fact, that I went out and celebrated by trading them both in on a new payment ('17 FLHTCU).

pcmc2 - good for you. Continue to enjoy the bike.

You'll have more fun if you not worry about any naysayers.
