    New bike in the stable

    Its been such a long wait for this to finally arrive. 10 months after putting down my deposit, and almost 6 months after it was supposed to be released.

    Hopefully, my GPS can no longer #^$@! with me in northern VT/NH/ME.

    Q: Is the bike labled a 2008, or 2009?

    Nice! I got to try one out while over here in the UK - sticking to my 1200GS for the time being, but damn, it is tempting

    Something like this:
