Default Finally got my bike

Finally made my decision on bike. I take delivery on a Vivid Black 2005 Heritage Softtail Classic (EFI) on March 12, which happens to be my B-Day.

Happy birthday to me!

Rommate got all his crap out of the garage too, so I got a place just waiting for this baby!

One thing I did learn, though, was that I should have pulled the trigger earlier. My bargaining position was significantly weaker today than it would have been, say, in the middle of the freakin winter. Supply and demand ya know.

No pics yet, but once I get it in, there sure will be!!
