Well I made it back from Assghanistan and it's less than a week before I get to ride my Road King for the first time. I've been looking forward to it for the last 3 months. Hope I love it as much after i ride it as i do now.

You'll love it bro; I guarantee it. I don't have an RK, but you'll have a tough time finding an RK owner that disagrees with that guarantee. Welcome home, and thanks for taking care of business. Ride safe.

Congratulations. I take it you ordered one while you were there? I actually talked to the sales people a couple of times, in Kuwait when I went on R&R and by email and even got a quote on a Heritage, but just couldn't afford it at the time. I still get the emails from them, like the thing I posted yesterday with 2010 Fat Boys for $13,300.
