RE: Joined the Touring scene today

Thanks for all the compliments guys.

My buddy and I put 100 miles on today...wow!!! Comfy.
&nbsp\\;\\\\\\;
Love how nimble the bike is.
&nbsp\\;\\\\\\;
We were about 10 miles from the dealership when the first rain hit. Man the windshield is nice, still got wet but didn't get drilled in the face like on the Fat Boy.
&nbsp\\;\\\\\\;
Got caught in rain 3 x times total...the last time there was actually small pea sized hail. I had on a short sleeve shirt so now I have little pock marks from the hail stones on my arms. No damage to the bike...thank goodness.

Here's a pic of my bike and my buddies 105 Anniversary RK that he picked up last Saturday.

Thanks for the tip on the screen name 08 Roadie, I'll have to check it out.

BTW, the boys in the pic below are 2 of the 3 triplets. The other was with mom while I was picking out the bike. They can't wait for the back rest/tour pack to get on the bike so they can go for a ride. They will be 11 next Sunday.
