That mileage is fantastic even without those circumstances. I know you and I have chatted over the years off and on. You're definitely one of those CVO owners that actually rides. As far as your health, hopefully that's all behind you now.

Can you remind me what part of TN you're in? We are heading down in April to stay in the Fall Creek Falls area.

We work full time but it's 12-hour days early in the week. As a result, we have 3–4-day weekends every weekend. We've both been with the same company for a while and have built up a **** load of vacation time. But the 3–4-day weekends make it to where we can do a lot of trips without having to use any vacation time. A lot of variables just fall our way for the time off.
Thats great! love to hear from riders who actually ride for fun. Couldnt care less about pounding miles for bragging rights. I had 3 weeks off that year and just took off on a road king (no cruise, no radio, 16" apes) and rode for 6400 miles that trip. Then there was the time my bike was my only means of transportation for about 4 years, lol!

Very nice bike. Elegant, less is more paint job. I'll never understand flames on a 900lbs / 105 HP bike...

I'm satisfied with mine in the less than 3 years that I've had it. Did suspension upgrade front and rear with Legends, cam / lifters / tune, C&C seat / backrest / pillion, speaker and amp upgrade, 2+2 narrow sweepers. I plan on keeping it

I’ve seen many of your posts. IMHO you’re a great contributor and a cool dude in cruising mood.
May the Lord heal you my brother

I couldn't imagine being more satisfied with a motorcycle. Love this bike.

Thank you! I always thought it was a little bland for a CVO (I love the brilliant silver and red pepper 2019 models). But at the same time, I agree. Sometimes less is more. I get a lot of comments on it while out and about even from people who don't ride.
