Well thanks to all for the feedback. My original thoughts were to pick up an 08 heritage, but when I went in and saw the book on the sringer, I had to put my money down. The build date was for April. One day I was walking in the showroom, perusing like normal, and the sales guy called me in his office and told me that I couldn't get the orange one like I wanted, however I could have an aniversary one if I wanted it. The other catch was that the bike was built October 5 instead. So now I get the bike just in time for the snow to fly. I sure am glad thats what them there states are for...My wife, dad and I are planning a trip to LA by truck, then a ride across to Miami and back in Jan-Feb. With any luck I will have a few pictures to post by the time I get back. For pictures of my old bike and my dads new one, check me out on facebook Ryan Harbison (Edmonton).
