Thank you all. Yes it's a damn good feeling to be back in the saddle AND have it paid off, but i would do it again in a heartbeat if it was a choice between my kids or the bike.

As far as I know Harley doesn't make 2 bikes that even come close to covering my daughters college unless she was going to some community college for 2 yrs

I restored a 68 Corvette Rag Top that was sold soon after my daughter started college. No regrets. It was the best investment that we both made in our future.

Congrats and good luck. Glad to see there are people out there who will give up everything for their kids as I would do the same if ever needed.
