Default When yer right

I had a sweet 05 d'luxe and felt lucky to have it. Took the plunge this winter and went shopping for my dream SGS on the next to the last day of the year when the retailer was short a few deals from sales forecast. Cut a super deal but ya know, still tough justifying so much scratch for a motorcycle. So into the garage she goes for the duration of the coldest cruelest winter in my memory. Well this weekend and today to work and back I ride.....and oh mizzica that's a spicy meatball! Worth every penny......just glad I knew I wuz right.

Nice...just 'cause you've had a long lay off from riding, think about some parking lot time to get the skills up and and get used to the controls on the new bike.

winter- ugh !

Awesome !! Heritage bikes look pretty good but the touring bikes rule for riding.

I finally saw that color on a bike outside and it sure looks good. Enjoy your new ride, may you have many thousands of trouble free miles and your face hurt from grinning.!
