Will we see you on a loaner in June or on a "New-un"?

Still don't know for absolute sure. Dealer called me and said the parts were in. I asked him how... when he told me 8-weeks. He claimed he made some calls and will have my bike done for the trip.

I am still contemplating trading it in though. I just have to get over writing the check.

We'll see; but one way or another I'll be there for certain.

Talk to you when we get there.

The more you ride it the less you will remember the stress of writing that trade-in check. Maggie Valley would make a great "Ride it like you stole it" Shakedown Cruise for a new one. ;) Whatever youre riding we'll be glad to see you there.

Writing the check and having the confidence of a new bike that you feel comfortable on or save the money and ride a bike that you may not feel good on or not confident in any longer... Tough call good luck Greg!
