Default I made the switch to a Bagger

I just got back from my local dealer. Dropped off my '08 Fatty and some cash as a deposit on a 2010 RG vivid black. I made the switch, should be in sometime next week.

Good move. I went from a sporster to an Electra Glide Classic. I skipped the middle bike 'cause I knew I would end with a bagger eventually. Saved a lot of dough in the process.
