Waving New Ride

Just picked up my new ride. Left over 2019 Vaquero from Grapevine Powersports. Look forward to dressing this one and the miles to come.
Back in the fold for a while.

Okay, yesterday I called my local shop and ordered the 12" windshield, then texted Chuckster for the 2" risers. After work I adjusted the bars up as far as possible, added 3 bells, and removes all warning stickers.
Today will be for setting all radio settings and a short ride.
Plan to purchase the BDD luggage rack and backrest next week.

Just gently fingernail under one corner then slowly rock back and forth upward. It was 100 outside yesterday afternoon, they were warm enough.

I am the Chapter VP - We were talking last night and will know for sure within two weeks - As the longest running Rally in the Organization, I would hate to have a little virus stop a 44 year run!
