Lazy Loser!!!

Hoist!

Lazy.....well, that might be argued.  Loser and Mike don't belong in the same conversation.  If he's a loser because he got to the top with that bike and went on to something else......you need to take a peek at his stable.

Mike plays it like he's broke and doing without.....he is Harley rich!

I think all the SESG colors are sharp.  Foolish or not I don't really care about what other peoples preference might be on this thing when I'm done with it.  The last thing this machine is, is an investment for good monetary capital.  It's for enjoyment.  Get away from that and I think you miss the point.

I make moderate decisions with my home that way, because it is that type of an investment where I need to make decisions that fit a criteria where changes are cost effective, beneficial to me and my family, and appealing to a broad range of buyers.  When I do the work myself and am frugal about tools and materials I get to enjoy the benefits of the remodeling and usually make a profit.  Not the same thing with a machine that depreciates the day you buy it.

My plan for now is to keep this bike.  Maybe it will stay in the family, but I have no plans to trade it in later/ever.

I hope you didn't tell your wife this...trust me that chit will come back to haunt you.  I told my wife that the 08 SG would be my commuter and never get traded in and I'd run it into the ground....well, along comes the '10 SESG, and the rest, as they say, is history.  I don't subscribe to the theory anymore.    (Besides, my better half knows me better than that when I say I'll never get rid of this...hehe)

And thank you Top.  I'll be back at FLW for the CCC starting in November of next year.  We should GTG and do some riding as it warms up.  I would be honored to buy you a drink.

CoalvilleBob was gracious enough to sell me his used Zumo 550.  He's moved on to the 660 and I did want the XM feature so I'm happy there.  CoalvilleBob is a great guy and BTW if you do complete the Hoka Key ride I really want to see pictures.

It's HOKA HEY!!  http://www.hokaheychallenge.com/

Yes sir, last time I was there the 5th was still there, actually just coming back from OIF then and raising hell all through the town.

From Rolla all the way to Waynesville I'll bet

SAPPER GOES DOWN UNDER......

It has been a long road and I'm ready for a break.  I'm leaving Iraq for my 2 weeks of Rest and Recuperation leave.  My wife is going to meet me in Australia.  We are going to go Sydney and hop on a cruise ship.  The military will fly you wherever you want to go when you go on R&R.  Most people just go home, I did on my last deployment.  This time thought I asked my wife if she wanted to meet me somewhere.  My only preference was that it was an English speaking country.  My Spanish is horrible and I'm tired of making a mess out of even simple Arabic phrases.

I get to watch my Colts play in the Superbowl tomorrow and catch my temporary freedom bird soon after.

Still no bike though.  Perhaps something will become available after I get back from R&R.

I had a couple of family members buy some stuff for the bike over Christmas, which I'll have to see about listing in this thread later.

Enjoy your R&R
