What a great ride !!! 5th gear is no louder than the other 5 gears, and the heat management verses my 07 EGC is very good. The stubby wind shield works great. No buffeting, even when I briefly hit 65-70 on the super slab on the way home. I don't care for the handle bars. They look great, but they kill my neck & shoulders (I'm almost 62). Overall I'm very impressed, and totaly pleased with my new scoot.
You should be on Oprah. You might have a "shopping" problem.

I hate it when you go in to just say hi and end up riding away on a new bike.

Hope you enjoy the new ride and good job on helping stimulate the economy.

Give the guy a break. It is his money to spend. I for one would prefer to actually pay mine off and have no payments, but each to their own. Enjoy the new bike!

Geez, I only wish I could swing getting a 2010. For those of you that can, go for it. I've paid cash for every Harley I've ever had, and I'm going to try and keep it that way. But that also means they stay in the stable for a long, long time. Congrats.
