Did it again......
took my bike in for the first service (1K), and came home with a new bike. No more Sporty, but this is it for a while or I might start having to pay child support and alimony, lol.
I have a great wife, I feel guilty but she says work hard and play hard. Payments are higher than I would have liked, but like Bert told me today, how much would you end up spending making the sporty work for me and the wife, guy had a point.
This is Phil & Bert's fault......
If I hadn't gone with Bert to pick up Phil's bike, I would have never sat on his Street Glide and would still think my Sportster is a nice ride, lol.
Will get pictures up later, but I have a brand new 23 mile on it, Road King Classic with ABS, cruise control, and 6 speed tranny. To say this rides better would be an understatement. And man what a difference a windshield makes, lol. Going out to put some miles on it, but this is a link to the website, mine is White Ice Pearl/Black Ice Pearl. The paint changes color and has flakes in it:

FM, fastest guy I have seen that went from a 883 to CVO Ultra, you are on pace for a two month $100k transition.
The King is plenty nimble just not as fast through the twistys, especially on wet blacktop. Enjoy the miles buddy
