You know you are on the right bike when
I brought my bike in for its annual service yesterday (3 years service included) and sat and waited in the service department for 2 1/2 hours for bike to be done. I never once considered looking at or test riding the new models. I've been on my current bike for 1 year and 20,000 miles. Maybe I'll trade on year 5...or 6...

I knew I wanted a Breakout the first time I saw one. I'd had my Blackline for 6 months at the time, when I was getting my Stage 1 done and saw a Breakout in the showroom. And right then, I tried dealing my bike for it...and again about 6 months later and again in 3 months. It wasn't until June of this year that I finally got one.

On the very rare chance that I set foot in the stealership....(wouldn't be for any service)..there's very little chance they'd have a bike that I'd consider...as Shovels and Evos aren't all that common on their showroom floors. No twinkies for me.
There is one particular Evo powered Softail Heritage classic up at a New Hampshire dealership (private dealership...thus not a stealership) that I'd strongly consider.

When I bought my Springer in '05 I knew what I wanted and I didn't have any other bike on my mind. The dealership had it, I bought it and after 10 1/2 years, almost 94k I don't have any regrets and nothing that has been made since that time has ever interested me like my Springer did then and still does to this day.

Agreed!
Same here. Those new bikes cost too much.
