Steve,
That's a beautiful RT. Congratulations! But what's that fluffy thing where the seat is supposed to be?
I'm sorry that I miss all of you in Arkansas!

That should be a ride you can blast along in all-day comfort! Congrats!

It is an Airhawk seatpad. Works great but not well when you use the heat.
We missed you Mac!
Next year?

My SO made me sign a paper stating that I would keep it for at least 4 years. Ya right!
I put in the disclaimer that if it gets stolen or totaled I can get a different one.

Ooooh! Nice. Does this mean you don't want the F650 anymore?
How is it compared to that 1100RT you had at the Bash?

I wanted to trade you the V-Rod, remember?

That is really weird - my first visit back here for ages, and this post was top of the 20-pages of unreads. I had just posted, literally just posted, on another site a story about how I struggled to keep up with a blue RT on my rideout yesterday into London! I filtered up behind the guy in traffic & he then proceeded to show me just how far you can crank over a touring bike with full-size luggage into sweeping bends. Power-to-weight ratio 0 - Cahones 1 ...
Lovely bike, congrats.
