Default We're Finally Here

Well I finally came home 15 months in Afganistan, and wouldn't you know it, we get home on Sunday, so I had to wait till tuesday to pick up the bike. There I was first thing tuesday morning to pick up the new SG. About time too LOL.... Wife is really getting tired of all the boxes sitting at the front door. I had the dealer chrome the front end, polish the rotors, put on the 4pt bracket and passenger backrest. I'll be doing the rest. Have the detach tourpak, streamline passanger footboards, 360 highway pegs, and a few other goodies to put on yet. I'll try to post a few pic's. I already installed the streamline shifter pegs, chrome windshield trim, and stealth luggage rack.
