I took your advice on the color combo instead of getting what I was thinking of. I believe in the long-run you will be correct. I am completing the paperwork this morning. Just about to leave in a few minutes. Too bad it will be a few months before I get to ride it.

Looks like SW Illinois where the cactus and tumbleweed grow.

Congrats on the new bike, Greg. I took one out for a test ride a couple months ago and it was fantastic!

I know you aren't taking delivery until it warms up but if you do, load her up and come down for a visit. After today, the weather is supposed to be great for a couple of weeks. And I'm off until the 2nd of January.

That would suck to buy a new bike and not be able to ride it for 3 months or more. Just sayin'.

Thanks guys. Several bikes were considered.
A new Indian was on the list, but they lost out when they didn't include a trunk. A big mistake on their part in my opinion, because they might have sold another bike this year. All in all, the many changes to the Limited for 2014 made to improve the ride and handling, and the fit for my large-frame body, it was easy for me to choose another Harley. (Sorry Dave, but I never had the problems you did. I loved my '09.) Quote:

Lastly, the dead of winter around here is a good time to buy a bike. They are very open to negotiating when the snow and ice covers the ground.
