Nedster, I've got plenty of room in my garage down here in Texas. I would be happy to store it for you no charge, but don't be suprised if it had a couple miles on it when you picked it up.
Nice bike, great color.

That's a great looking bike, the local HD owner here bought one and added lowers and detachable tour pak to it. That red sure looks good in the sun. Speaking of sun, hope you have some soon!

On colors, I have the black pearl and I am not wild about it either. Unless there is sunshine it looks muted and it kind of disappears. It looks great in the sun when it is clean... but most of the time it just doesn't stand out.

I'm not wild about the blue, and agree last years cobalt blue was much better. I think either of the reds are the ticket. Next would be black then pewter, then pearl black.

I'll probably get mine painted...

well unfortunately, our three local dealers in this area are all family members, so there are no real "deals" on anything. i paid around 3200 for the whole shebang, pipes, sert, dyno, etc.
but they are good people and always take care of any problems. i dont' mind paying a little more for that peace of mind.
