Sounds like you got a great deal. Very low mileage. Will be waiting to see some pix. Love to know what you consider a great deal. Might help in the dickering process for some of us that are out there looking for newer used models. Thanks.

Welp, I'm back home...

All I can say is WOW!

I had a beautiful 125+ mile first ride home... mostly highway and boy ol' boy does this thing just eat up the miles... smooth as anything.

It was a little dark when I got home, so the pictures are very crappy, but here's a picture I snapped of her in the garage. I'll be posting some better shots when I can.

Congrats Jeremy! Black Cherry Pearl is an awesome color! I had an '07 in Black Cherry Pearl (sig picture) and was really bummed when the bike had to be totaled after my accident last April (jackass dropped a bundle of silt-fencing on the highway, car in front of me swerved and I did not have enough time to miss the obstacle).

As others have mentioned, now you have the option to put the 95" big bore kit on and the bike will really crank out the power.

Enjoy!!!

Makes the 2 yr unlimited mile warranty an easy thing for Harley to offer up!

Nice bike Jerm!

Congrats on the new bike. My RKC was black cherry and that color is absolutely beautiful! Good job and welcome to the touring family.
