I am a happy camper .. I will be picking it up next week .. now come the hard part .. the waiting ..

Thanks to all for your advise in the last few weeks ...

Real nice color. Definately an attention getter. Not everyone is able to have a yellow bike. Enjoy it. And let the spending begin. Just curious as to what you spent? You don't have to answer, but I believe in asking anything that pops in my mind. Also, any reason why you just didn't go get her yourself, instead of having it delivered? I had to have my bike delivered. It would have been at least an 11 hour drive home, and the wife wouldn't let me. Said it had been awile since I rode and was nervous about it, plus to fly there would have run me $300 and then the cost of gas and hotel. I paid $500 to have it sent to my door. Still wish I had picked it up though. Would have been a great ride.
