Default New Heritage OTW

I finally decided to do it and I put a deposit down on a '05 Heritage Classic...

Ship date from the factory will be June 26 and I plan (hope) to be on those 2 new wheels by the 4th of July.

Can't wait! Can't wait! Can't wait! Can't wait! Can't wait! Can't wait! Can't wait! Can't wait! Can't wait! Can't wait! Can't wait! Can't wait! Can't wait! Can't wait! Can't wait! CAN'T WAIT!!!

I'm sure my dealer will soon be referring to me as "that guy who keeps calling about his bike".

I've ordered a couple new bikes and everyone is right. Waiting sucks, but the dreams while waiting are great.

Congrats on the decision and welcome to the forum. There is a real hazard with waiting, however, that no one so far has warned you about. According to the latest Scientific studies from Lake Minetonka University, every two week period of waiting, adds about $500 to your total cost as you eat, sleep and (especially) sh*t with your catalogs and the dreams Terry mentioned. Be thankful, it's summer it the weather were going to be colder when you got it, you'd have to add another grand for clothing. So many things to plan for and buy, You'll have notebooks full of parts numbers and prices and a kazillion post-it notes sticking out of your catalogues.
And questions? Please bother us with them. We all have opinions and we are here 24 hours a day to support you and your new addiction.
BTW, My name's Art and I'm a Harley Addict. Welcome to Willie G.'s neighborhood.
I also forgot to mention that every nice day between now and the time you get your bike, you'll cuss out the weatherman, you'll begin rooting for rain and days that are miserabley hot.
Good to have you aboard and best wishes.
