Talking Pulled the trigger today

Put my signature on the dotted line...

I traded in my '06 RK Custom today on a new '08 Street Glide. Put 21k great miles on that RK and I am sure I will miss that bike.

Take delivery on the 24th.. and then of course let the mods begin after that.

If you are looking for one sharp (dealer stated the RK was a "10" when they evaluated it) RK Custom with Black Cherry paint and live in the Seattle area I would suspect Downtown HD will have that bike advertised pronto.

Looking forward to the new ride!

Thanks all.. I will be posted picturs asap.

The dealer had to pull a trade to get my bike.. so it is being sent up from Oregon.

Were I not leaving for Florida in about 8 hours I could have likely picked it up this coming Monday or Tuesday.

This will give them time to get the King Tour Pak hardware installed before I pick it up.

I am pumped!
