I wanted one the minute I saw one! $$ always played a part and being a sportbike guy thats where my money went. Getting older I need more comfort but still need the speed! There was no other bike considered but a bird! I look foreward to learning a lot about my new toy from all of you! Thanks in advance PS I am excited | ||

Only one sleepless night - lucky you. Enjoy your new bird, but do be careful on the way home, these things are deceptive.

I am glad to join a message board that people are actually a part of and respond to other members. I am quickly learning that a blackbird owner is a special thing here. thanks
