So today, we get our B5 and G5 Deluxe in around 2ish.
The B5 rolled out on the way to the Central Coast about 6:30.
Only the tech who prepped it got to ride it.
It sure was purty.

Great guy from this forum snagged it over the phone couple days ago.
More coming......

Thanks Tri750!

The bike is wonderful. I've sold the truck that I picked the bike up with and decided to use the bike as my sole means of transport.

My boss has asked me to put a cover over it in the parking lot at work. Apparently, it had become a source of congestion as people would obstruct traffic to stop and have a look. i sure do love talking about it though!
No, I don't ride a Harley; I like motorcycles.

A local restaurateur where I get my morning coffee asked me to leave mine parked in front of his place - it attracts customers!   ;D

That B5 is certainly a keeper.

Any talk of more colors?
