I hate to say good bye to the Slim, but I have too..I need something for longer trips and a smaller payment...Damn child support..JK i love my kids, there just so dame expensive...I love the way the slim looks, and i wish I could have both..

Im trading it in for a Street Glide, still in the Harley Family...But so long soft tail peps, it was nice while it lasted....
