Thought it would be interesting to see what other years/brands/models of bikes everyone's had in the stable through the years that finally brought us to owning a CVO. Here's my list:

1980 Yamaha 400 Special II
1985 Kawasaki 900 Eliminator
1993 Kawasaki Concours (stolen out of my garage one night, lol!)
1994 Kawasaki Concours (to replace the stolen one)
2002 Harley-Davidson Electra Glide Classic
2004 Harley-Davidson Screamin' Eagle Electra Glide Classic

hummer, how the hell did you remember all of those?

I laughed like hell when I read this........Naitram when you get up into our age this is not the kind of thing one really remembers......hell, I was just sittin here wonderin if I could even remember all the bikes I've had over the years in regards to just the Harleys, not countin all the little (started on the canal on a mini-bike) "other" brands over the years......I'm sure he was a little more organized than I and kept a list somewhere.

There were times when I bought bikes on a credit card, took it home and sold it a week later, just for the profit......do those count?? Those days are over with......now they depreciate instead of appreciate. But there was a time when I could claim that I never sold a bike (HD) for less than I paid for it.

I had posted earlier listing all my bikes, with the SEEG listed as coming...

Whoa!!!!!! Stop the presses!!!

The Harley Shop just called at 3:00.

The call on the cell phone said

"This is Mission Control"

I said "WHAT"

The voice said

THIS IS MISSION CONTROL,, THE EAGLE HAS LANDED!

Just went by there and it's there.

They will uncrate and setup in the morning!

Pictures will follow!

Add the SEEG to the list! [smiley=xyxthumbs.gif]

The topic was "What other scooters have you had?"

The black Sportster is my girl friends.
It's history when the 06s come out.
She likes my SEEG soooooo much she plans to buy a 2006SEEG when they are available!

If recent history is anything to judge by she won't have the option. I think there's only been one example of a CVO model being in production three years. Two years has been the standard. If that stays true there won't be on 06 SEEG.

hd2003-se2005 I am so excited for your girlfriend to aspire to attain such a fine ride. She has very good taste obviously. She, like GoFastGirl can see and appreciate a fine piece of work when it is made available. This SEEG is such a fantastic motorcycle. If 06 is not going to be an option, please help her get what is left of the red 05s or that luscious looking yellow that has yet to hit the floors. She will be sooooo happy. Have her pm me if she is at all hesitating for any reason. I am here to say that this bike really has it all. Thanks for listening. [smiley=1syellow1.gif] [smiley=laugh.gif]
