Hey all -- sorry it took so long to get back to this. Long day at work but had two nearly 60 degree days in a row, and thus, rode to work. Round trip is 30 miles, but for some reason that 30 turned into 60 today. In any event, thanks for all of the good suggestions as to what to do next. My wife isn't all that bad -- she just had to live through the time I bought a 96 classic from the Atlanta police after being used for escort duty during the Olympics, and watch me tear it completely down, have it custom painted, chromed out the you know what, etc., etc. And then there was the time I bought the 01 Ultra, but wasn't satisfied with the 88, and had the SE 96 kit installed, and of course there was the need for a power commander, pipes, and yes, chrome out the you know what. She knows what's coming, but I had to promise that after spendin' the bucks on the CUSE4 (my Christmas gift) that I would keep "change" to a minimum for a year or two. However, she even said after a ride last week that the new bike sounds kind of wimpy compared to my old one. That gave me the open door as in, "well, you know dear, I could . . . ." I think you can kind of guess the look I got after that -- you know the one with the hands on the hip, head to the side, and one eyebrow raised? But the key is that she didn't say "no" but she did ask, "how much." And like a dumba## I'm the one that said, "Oh, you know somewhere between $500 and $1000." I'll see how the steaks and martinis work on her later tonight.
If any of you are near Georiga at any time, give a shout and we can set up a ride. Supposed to be beautiful here this Sunday. Look forward to hearing more suggestions from ya.
