She's home!
« on: June 24, 2010, 01:30:10 PM »

Here's what I brought home with me today - a week seemed like a L O N G time to wait.  All I can say is WOW - although it sounded like I was riding a GoldWing, she felt SO RIGHT!  I've ridden various touring bikes over the years but nothing this new; coming off the Fatboy is a big difference.  Felt glued to the road, but very soft ride.  Now if I can figure out how to get some more leg room (floorboards seem way high compared to the Fatboy) I'll be set.

Tonight and tomorrow night she loses her mufflers and head pipes in favor of Fullsac 2.0 and xpipe replacements.

Attached image is the new ride just as we got home.  I'll post another showing the 05 Fatboy I traded.

Here's the loyal Fatboy that was a good ride for the past five years - guess you can tell I had a bit of SG envy going on... glad I finally found the cure!

Fatboy became somewhat of an obsession - was always gonna STOP - just one more thing.  Just added that BDL belt drive a few months ago and love that sound (like a small block Chevy with a blower) - might be tempted to do the same with the SESG one of these days, but overall I anticipate fewer changes.

Congrats-I think that color does best with the black wheels and black inner fairing.
