Thanks for the warm welcomes! The bike is coming in on Federal Motorcycle Transport. I've been checking their tracking system about every 10 minutes and if I'm reading it right my bike has entered the great state of Texas. It's not supposed to be delivered until next week, but I've got my fingers crossed for Friday. You'll know when it shows up - if you don't hear me yelling "HELL YEAH", you'll see pictures as soon as I can get them uploaded!

I've got friends who own Goldwings and like them, and a neighbor who LOVES his new 1600GTL, but we quickly settled on a Harley Ultra Classic. Found a low mileage used bike for sale that we liked
I too am blessed with a MRS that loves to ride with me. She tried taking the rider's course to get her ticket but found out that she didn't like being up front! As a result, we enjoy being out there together a lot.
We moved from a '79 Kawi 440LTD, to an '82 Honda GW1100, to a '95 Harley Ultra Classic over about 7-8 years. A year ago I sold the HD to upgrade my 4-wheel toy (Boxster S) but we missed the bike a lot, so we saved up & just picked up an '03 V-Rod last month down in FLA. We both love it.
Enjoy every minute you can out there together!
