Default Rode My Low Rider for the First Time!

Picked up my bike yesterday after waiting four long weeks since I bought it. I had to wait for the pipes, bushings for the swingarm and the techs to learn how to use the new SE Pro Super Tuner software. My paint won't be in for another three to four weeks, so I am hoping to get enough miles logged to have the break in service done at the same timethey change the skin.

It was worth the wait - the bikeruns (and sounds) awesome! The weather here in San Antonio was flawless yesterday and I nearly rode through a tank of gas! Any advice on how to wipe this stupid grin off my face or should I just get used to it?

Oh yeah, finally got the picture to work in my sig.
