She just kinda grinned when I told her this!

I'll give it at least a year (I think). Things are still TOO new for me regarding these machines to be upgrading from the Ford to Lincoln version so soon.

Thats why you don't sink too much $$ into the one you have trying to make it into a Lincoln. Just buy the Lincoln.

Congrats!!! I wanted the 2010 RKC with that exact color option but didn't want to put the $$ out for it. I got my 2009 instead still love the color on mine...but love the way your bike looks purple out in the sun!

The paint changes color and has flakes in it:

Don't listen to MB on this one. I was double-up on the Dragon, and they weren't exactly leavin' on me. With an 88cu 5-speed no less. Pavement was wet, too!

+1 on that. 2Beers on his RK, riding 2up, on his first trip to the twisties, was chomping on my tail by the end of day 1. I'd have to say that rider skill has a lot more to do with it than the size of one's wallet.
