yeah, I bought it a couple of months ago with 2600 miles as my second bike, found it in Texas where it was ridden 300 miles a year lol. My cvo limited is over 30k miles so I’m going to put some miles on this sg this year!

I also got a short ride in Christmas Day (50 miles). It was cold for sure. I took 66 from Manassas out to The Plains and then 55/17 back.
