    Default OUT WITH THE V-TWIN

    sp 3 002.jpg As you can see, I now have this 2014 RTS SE6. I rode it home a couple weeks ago. WOW!!!! what a change from the 2012 I had, much better in every way. Many years ago I was told that a three-some is unforgettable, now I finally know what they were talking about. right?

    I was wondering how long it was going to take you to pop on a 1330. I saw that one sitting there at the dealership with your name on it, and it gave me a great big smile! That is what happens when you ride a 1330, the power and torque is so broad and smooth, you really get addicted to it. Especially after your extended demo period. I rode the same demo bike you did and had the same thought (gotta' have a 1330)!

    May you enjoy many miles and many smiles with your new ride. It is a beautiful machine!

    If you want to persue the three-some some more. A college in New Mexico is having a seminar on that subject. True story ???

    threesomes are great
    twosomes are good
    onesomes are handsome.

    Did I say that!!

    Actually I like one cylinders better for some types of riding.

    Welcome to the 2014s!!

    I'm lovin mine, amazing how much faster I can go in a particular sweeping left hander on the way to work than I could on the 2012, with less effort and no grumbles from nanny.

    Not entirely sure nanny even lives here, I had to do a fairly exciting escape from a stupid cage driver and lifted a wheel, nanny still snoozed on.

    Used the heated seat today, even through sportbike leathers my donkey got toasted, I had to turn it off...

    $250 an hour. Rather expensive! Gotta wait for income tax return to be able to afford it.
