Hi Hoist,
Great pictures! I bet you felt great witnessing the birth of your bike.
[highlight]I never got the chance to do that since my dealer likes to keep the sales staff and customer in the dark about bike arrivals. They don't even take deposits. Only a call list that they use when a bike is in and setup.[/highlight]
I had a 6 month wait but it sure was nice to see it finally.
I know you must be anxious to ride it too. Maybe it will be for the best that you first ride it without the mods so you will have a basis of comparison?
Ride safe!  8-)

Thanks VaEagle, I never did either. This place is under new ownership. And this dealer's been doing right by me so far. All I'm hoping is they work on the bike just as professionally, and not gorilla it. That would definitely be a first for me! A Dealer that's got their act together. What a concept! ;) Hoist! 8-)

Thanks Rooster, I'm glad it's almost over. The wait was a little easier having 3 other bikes. But for some reason this one was like getting my first bike. Maybe everyone here, constantly talking about their awsome machines and mods, had something to do with it! ::) Hoist! 8-)

Hoist! I'm loving this. 8 pages in one day about the birthing of your bike. This has got to be a record!
Congratulations!!!

Take a bow Hoist, and congratulations.  Glad  the day has come!  Seeing the pics of the delivery remind me of what I experienced six weeks ago.  Even recorded a video while it was on the lift getting prepped.  Have to say you have fine taste...

Thanks sfarson, I remember when you got yours. It seems like ages ago for me! :o I guess you can't use it these days with the snow? Although that didn't stop you when you got it! [smiley=xyxthumbs.gif] Hopefully, I'll be riding on Sunday! ;) Hoist! 8-)

That's all for now folks. I hope you enjoy looking at them as much as I enjoyed taking them. Now, just one more call and I'll be riding it!!! ;) Hoist! 8-)

Howie,
Congratulations!  Great shots.  Uh, was that first one of the B&O just to make me squirm???? ;)  Hope they get you set up and rolling soon.  They probably won't like you sleeping in the shop while they get her prepped ;D ;D.
I'm really happy for you man.  Enjoy and ride safe.

I'm in NYC man. You can never forget that they're all trying to kill you here. You do and you're dead! :o If I'm surprised about the handling after four other RK's, I'll be shocked. But that's what I was hoping for with the wider radial tires and better suspension. I'll let you know what I think. Thanks Bob

My last two bikes were RKC's.  For my first ride on the SERK I pulled it out of my driveway and just rode it around the block.  In that short ride I could tell a huge difference rounding the corners from the very beginning.  Then when I finally got it out on the road and got more comfortable with it, I was genuinely impressed with the handling. I don't want to get back on the RKC now, I'm already spoiled.  

Let me know if I'm just easily impressed or if you see the difference the same as I did.
