greywolf what do you think of your new bike then ?... how many miles have you clocked up on it now ?

I'm still setting it up. I did about 10 miles to make sure it was working and we've been locked up in the garage since.

I just didn't like the orange very much. The gray grew on me in 2007 but I didn't give this one much time.

Here are a few quick pics. This one is a little dark and the bags are on backwards.



This shows the color better.



New dash layout.



If it ever stops raining, I'll get some outside.
