Hello from the Rio Grande Valley and been reading this site ever since I put in my order for the new bike. We are from Central Illinois and I have been riding motorcycles since the age of around 8, which means I have been riding something with 2 wheels and a motor under me now for almost 50 years.
The new bike is in back home at the dealership and cannot wait to head back north as soon as the weather warms up a bit. We have been riding all winter down here in the valley and have had some really nice weather. We also went up to the Lone Star Motorcycle Rally at Galveston back the first week in November.
Thanks to everyone that contributes to this great site and for all the good information. I have been riding my 04 Heritage ever since it came in back in Oct of 2004 and the BSR is ready for more comfort on those long rides. Again "Thank You" all for the information here and look forward to reading more of the good and bad on this new scoot I/we are going to soon be riding!
Oh yes the new one is still in the box and a friend of mine works for the dealership says it is well protected with "OUR" names all over the box!!
I will post pictures when we get back home sometime mid-April.
