Default Happiest day of my life, David brings home a bike! (pics)

Got it for $6800, plus all the nonsense. I wont tell you how much all together, but lets just say I will (am) in debt for a long time. Went riding for 4 hours today w/my buddy. I am surprised how comfortable I feel on it.

Go to state farm for your insurance. Best rate I found.

Finally can see the pictures. Very nice man. Did you get a rear seat cowl, or is that the seat? I would have gotten a different helmet, but at least you got one!!

Let's get together and ride FL isn't far

Ya, helmet is a Shoeir, DOT/Snell approved, and it matches. I would love a Arai, but $600 for a helmet is a bit much, but than again it is possibly saving yourlife. Many seem my helmet is a POS, but its not

I don't think it is a piece. It is just a little too matching for my likes.

Check out http://www.helmetharbor.com I had my dealer beat their price since I bought the bike

Nice Bike!!

Kind of makes me sad since I'm selling mine. Just don't get enough time to ride 3k miles in two years

Hope you get to ride yours, enjoy!!

Sweet! Congrats on the new sixxer. Keep the rubber side down and get that jacket ASAP.

I would second State Farm for insurance just as long as you have a car as your primary mode of transportation with them
