I understand that asking the following questions can onsidered 'rude' but considering you are amongst friends.....
What kind of "hit" did you take on the VALUE of your trade in bike since purchase?
What reduction did you get of the price of the new bike?

Just curious.......

Ride In Peace

Congratualtions man! I have had mine now for 2 weeks today and love it! It is one fantastic ride, your gonna love it. Got 400 miles on so far and have been sick from riding it in the cold weather, Doctor and wife tell me to stay off of it for awhile but it just hard to do!
