    That's what I told my wife,

    She said Merry Christmas.........

    I got to pay for it oh.

    Man I didn't know a bike could ride so good. My wife was even talkin about how good it rode.

    The Demo bikes didn't ride this good.

    A dude bought it. Put chrome lower forks on it.
    Skull front and back floor boards. Brake pedal and shiftin pedal.
    It had 1039 miles on it.
    Traded my bike in and put some money down. Got 238.00 a month paymnts.

    Don't want to put the strain on the wife.

    nice bike. I was working at the Calgary motorcycle show today....blizzard outside, bikes inside. My wife and I sat on a Limited today...chatted a bit with the Harley rep. If you're buying a new bike they're pretty good value for the extras you get. I rode a couple at Sturgis....just a nice bike to ride, comfy..really liked it. I'd get one if ol' Chuggy was a crummy bike..but it ain't..some day though. Congats on the new scooter...:)

    When I glanced at it the guage was 1/2 way while I was running.

    The Limited you have is 1000.00 more than mine.
    Nice color oh.......
    And we both got a real nice bike.
    I got 12,000 financed plus interest.
    Want to pay it off as fast as possible.
    I'm paying 238.00 a month. Not too bad for what I've got......
    Want the title in the drawer at the house.......:D

    My hands got cold on the 50 mile ride home after 6:00 pm
    Turned i on 5 which is 1/2 way.

    Had to turn it down fast.
    It got hot even with my gloves on.
    Wife said it didn't have a draft on back side of the bike like the other bike did.

    think were gonna enjoy it.

    Yea I owe 7 on mine now and want to get it paid off soon. My payment is around 190.00 but I added the cam and header pipe Sert and dyno tune in the price otherwise it would be a whole lot less.

    Think I want to keep mine quiet......

    The dealer told me today. They would not sell a bike to a customer with a Power Commander on it.
    They did a lot more explainin to me today too..........

    I learned more about how they want to operate.
