 John, left Salem HD after lunch 2-3ish headed back to Bend & Crater Lake with his bike this time and not a car rental.
We went back to the dealership today to meet some friends that just bought a SE Road Glide. I'll let them post pictures and introduce the new baby. Until then my lips are zipped.

What do you think of this FINE Limo???? We had a few laughs, it went by a few times while we were standing outside the dealership. Not sure what it was trolling for  :nixweiss:

 On our way to Salem HD, John is packed and on the road again. Trying to talk him into doing the Nor Cal Tour, no luck. The break down has put him behind on the miles and all the site seeing.

John,

You got a wash job too from the looks of it.

Glad it all has worked out, you'll still have a new motor for the Hood River run next summer :2vrolijk_21:

Roger,

I was tempted to buy a new bike the day I dropped off my bike at the Salem shop, I was looking at this in the showroom. But in the show room the colors don't show their true looks. Good thing I didn't see it in the sunshine. I also just could not see buying two bikes in one year becaue I wore the first one out.

John,

Where are you, I have been in the Manitoba bush and then in the Yukon for most all of September, how are things going.

Glad I wasn't around when you found the glide ::)

Roger,

I thought about you but the dealer told me he could not sell it to a resident of Washington or California, something about the exhaust emissions.

Don bought it and it registering it in Idaho with someone in his family.

The dealer get your SERG yet? I like and don't like them at the same time. I guess I like more chrome on the front end and with the SERG all I see is paint up front.

The dealer in Austin TX had a grey one for sale when I was there early September but they wanted 3K over MSRP. >:(
I also can't see buying two motorcycles in the same year.

I am parking the motorcycle tomorrow in the basement of the Grand Rapids MI HD shop. They are doing a deal for climate controlled storage with oil change, battery maintenance, wash & wax, and other things for $300. Storage is from Oct 1st to Apr 1st. Fit my schedule perfectly, got an email yesterday from the company I contract to in Asia asking if I could possibly help out with a small project, more perfect timing. I told the company I was leaving for Thailand Thursday and they said that was perfect.

The bike has 31,700 miles on it, the new motor runs real smooth, seems faster then the old one but maybe not as much torque, all this is seat of the pants, I have never done a dyno run but part of the storage deal is a free dyno run if I want it.

Roger, send me an email or PM with your mailing address, once I get to Thailand I have something to send you. Something you and I talked about.

Good to hear your timing worked out on the return to the east.

Look forward to your return to the States in the spring.
