Redman09,
As oft repeated, THANKS FOR YOUR SERVICE!!!!  My son just came back from the "triangle" after 13 mos.  Looks like he gets to go back for #4 next fall.  The superiors are really f***-ing up over there with their stupid ROE's and such.  Too many good guys getting shot for no reason at all, other than total lack of brains by their superiors.

As for breakin- the posting of vary the speeds, nothing over 3500 for the first 500 and nothing over 5000 for the first 1000 should fit what your manual will tell you.  Only thing I'd add would be to make sure you've got some heat headed into the motor (I always feel the rocker boxes for heat- as soon as I can feel a little, I ride).  This allows for expansion of the metals without the stress of pushing the bike down the road.  Seems to make her run better down the road.

Since our son-in-law joined our family, it has reminded us every holiday of the men & women serving our country over seas. Be safe, god be with you, and I can't wait to hear of your thoughts on your new ride when you get back home.

I enjoy my 09 SE Springer every day, mine is the Black Diamond with Emerald Ice Flames. And anyone can tell you, pictures don't do them justice, the paint up close with the light shiningon them brings out so much more in person.

Welcome to the CVO site!  We all appreciate your service and think of you guys daily in our prayers.  I bought the 2008 CVO springer in late march after spending two years in Kandahar, Afghanistan.  I'm lovin' it.  Watch your back and look forward to hearing about your bike when you pick it up.

Wednesday I got email from Cassy (my wife) which had great news, my bike arrived early. So she went to the dealer and took some pictures for me.
