    I just got of the phone with a dealer after negotiations to purchase a new to me bike. well, I was able to get the deal closed, all that is needed is to lay a deposit of $500 to hold the bike for me and also waiting on a contingency letter stating that the bike must meet my standards after a test ride has been performed. The family and I will be taking a power trip to Wisconsin to go pick the bike up of Friday.

    I purchasing a 2001 Road Glide. :D

    The bike is the Black Cherry. I am stoked about that is for sure. The Sportster is where it should be as far as performance goes and all of the other jazz so now it is time to focus on the RG.:D
