Dude,
I AM STOKED!!!
LETS RIDE!!!

Pics to come in the morning...
Congratulations and best of luck with your new ride!

As already mentioned, I'd strongly suggest you enroll in your state's MSF motorcycle safety course and buy a copy of the "Ride Like A Pro" DVD. Both are great teaching tools and will make you a more competent rider no matter how much experience you may have.

Now let's see those pics!

Hey, monkyman...........I saw an '09 with that root beer color the other day for the first time. Very classy, "rich-looking" color scheme!

Congrats on the new ride. +1 on the MSF course and Ride Like a Pro DVD. Great info and not all of it is common sense. Good luck and ride safe.

Congrats on your new bike. You are starting out on a much better bike than I did 20 years ago. I started with a honda 750 piece of sh*t. That thing leaked everywere. But I was just happy to be on a bike. Now on my second Harley, life is good I tell you.
