Oh Oh OH, I picked mine up today, earlier than expected. It is now sitting comfortably in my garage. **** weather, can't wait to get out on it now.

Only thing I got put on were the engine guards

and thanks Mr Reed, I sussed them out today when it was delivered.

Cheers

Lisa

Got some coil wires. Super stoked on them. Check out Robin @ uskoolines.com, fast turn around and they look/fit great!
Put on some cycle shacks last night. My bike sounds like a Harley now!
Man those stock ones suck.

I'm looking at an Iron 883, don't like the pipes but do like the Nightster pipes, the angle/baloney cut. Anyone tried those? I am betting I could find a set as a take off from a Nightster who spent a bunch on full exhaust. Any thoughts?

Will, I think the first order the dealer got was 3 and they were all sold. His next lot will be here in December, not sure how many after that. I think they're selling like hot cakes here in Oz.

Went for my first ride yesterday, only a short one coz the weather turned very bad here in Melbourne. It was fantastic. Just have to get used to the "harley thing". Compared to my sports bike, it's louder, vibrates more and stuff like that, I just need to get used to it.

It was funny though, I thought two blokes were gonna break their necks turning to look at the bike. They must have known bikes/harleys, coz they sped up to get next to me again to have a look at it. I can imagine, as this bike isn't released in Oz yet, they'd be trying to guess what it was. hahaha.

Anyway, so far so good. Just put my bikers bell on it. Now to accessories. hehehe.

Cheers

Lisa
