Congrats to the wife. Love the color, bike looks great! As for the axle cover, I would go black as well!

Just give her yours, already hot-rodded...then order a complete 128 kit with 22XE from Jamie, and make that Billiard Blue Beauty yours!

She will be thrilled with the new power.

I really like your thinking, but getting the Billiard Blue out of her hands, could be very dangerous.

Great choice in bike. I agree you definitely want the black axle nut covers.

Nice bike.

My wife, would never let my ride one of her new bikes home from the dealer. Only time she lets me ride one is if she things something might be wrong for me to check it out.

Ya, the weather came into play, with no sun and the cool temp and we wanted to get it home. Weve rode in some pretty cold weather, when caught in it, but to start out in it, she will avoid it. Lol

I’d trade my black axle nut covers for some saddlebags!
