Ok-so today I picked up my new (to me) 2007 Springer Classic 250 miles away from my home. Trailered it back, unloaded it, geared up and went for a 20 minute spin. It is chilly (42 degrees) here but I was going to ride the thing no matter what.
What a ride! I love this baby!
I bought a 1980 Kawasaki KZ440 LTD new back in the day and put near 30K on it. Got married, had kids, sold the bike; always knowing that one day I would be able to swing the real deal. Well, 30 some years later, I daggum swung it!
Can't wait to start modding things to my specs.
PO did put extended controls and floorboards on, which suit me fine. V&H true duals, which sound great. But I'll be wanting (for starters) passing lights and a windshield.
Anyway- weather should be a bit warmer tomorrow and Monday-can't wait to get in the saddle again!

 

Lol, 440 LTD was my first bike out of High School...I think you're going to like the new scoot just a little more...just a hunch

 

Congrats and enjoy..

 

Nothing like Springer! Congrats on your new ride!

One question though - Where da pics???

 

Not much to compare to the feeling of get'in a new ride, congrats!

 

Congrats!! and enjoy!

 

They had a new 07 Green one sitting on the floor when I bought mine in 07..

Thought back then, "Fugly"... now I drool over them...

Nice find.

I like them with some mini apes, shield and some real springer bags like (97 lHeritage Springer) has on his bike above..

The bags are not Cheap when and if u can find them.

 

Welcome to the fun side .. and we are enjoying the BEST amazing Feb. Ever

 

you will be loving it even more this year since gas is supposed to hit 5 bucks a gallon

 

Congrats. What a feeling. Get some pics up! Have fun...
