Default New Ride Comming Home

I will be picking up the new ride on Sat , Mar 10/07 . Myself and a couple of buddies will pick up my new 2006 Standard Softail and loadit on the back of a trailer and bring her home. Too much snow yet to ride, and cold. I just want to thank everyone in this forum with their comments whenever I asked for them. Special thanks to SOFT06 in Southern California forall the information you supplied pertaining to the Rush slip-ons. I ordered the slash downs with the 2 inch baffle. Thanks to another post and Soft06 again , Ichanged the stock seat and put on the 2007 Custom seat. When I head down the road this summer and my ride sounds so good and my butt is happy, I will think of you guys. Thanks again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Senior Ride,
Wayne

Congrats!! I know how you are feeling, I'm scheduled to pick up my new FXSTC on Friday 3/9/07. The strike caused a slight delay. Are you worried about the issues surrounding the tranny?
