But I didn't. Ya'll grab a round on what little cash I've got left,
while I try to come to terms with what I've done. I've been thinking
about buying another bike for a couple of months now. I've got a bike I
can ride anywhere, and we really need one that Kenny can do the same on.
I was thinking that if I got another Honda, a bigger Honda, that I could
ride it when I felt like it, and Kenny could ride it when he needed to.
Then Sue posted about the Nightster... Thanks a lot! I really liked it
alot. I set it as the wallpaper on my desktop, and showed it to Kenny
when he came in. We both really liked it, and thought we'd go see if we
could see one in person. Tampa Harley had one, in orange and black. It
feels good, sits good for both of us. Did we buy it? No. That would
have been too easy.
We continued wandering around just to see what there was. Saw a really
nice nighttrain, but it was outa the price range. Wandered around a
little more. While Kenny is still talking about the nighttrain, I wander
over to a black beauty just sitting there. Hmmm. I like that! I wonder
how it feels? Sit on it. Feels pretty good. Feet down on both sides,
pretty much like my Magna. (Am I paying attention to the fact that it
has forward controls? No, of course not. I'm still blinded by the
beauty of the black. Or maybe that was the chrome?)
Hey Kenny, come look at this one! He hurries over, says wow, I like
that! The salesman can smell blood... Let me see how much that one is,
he says. He goes away, comes back and names his price... I can do that,
I'm thinking. It's right there where I figured I'd be comfortable. To
make a long story not much shorter, they check the credit, decided I was
worthy, and consented to finance the bike. Got my insurance in order,
signed way too many papers, and tried really hard not to have a nervous
breakdown.
Kenny pulled out of the parking lot on his (our, my) 2004 FXSTI. He says
it rides nice and smooth and has plenty of power. I'm not completely
sure that I'll be able to ride it. I can reach the controls, but it
feels like I might be stretching too far. We'll see, I guess. Becky is
completely upset. Right now it just has a solo seat, so she can't go for
a ride. We've got a line on a 2-up seat that a friend has though, so it
shouldn't be too long til she gets to ride. Something tells me that
riding with Mama just isn't going to have much appeal anymore.
Why don't ya'll grab another round, cause I hate to drink alone, and I
could really use another one. Still can't believe I did it. Ya know, we
probably could have gotten 2 really nice Hondas instead of the Harley...
<G> But Kenny just wouldn't have been as happy. I swear if his grin
gets any bigger, it'll meet in the back!
Rosie, who's already taken some pictures, and will post them across the
street shortly.

Wholly shit, Rosie! Congratulations! Your next round's on me. Maybe they
make forward control setbacks? I know I can't reach them on a lot of
bikes...
