Trading it in for Christmas

Well.....I'm treating myself to an early Christmas present again this year....still while I can afford it.

I decided to trade in my 2005 Harley Night Train for a 2006 Harley Street Glide. It's a sweet bike and I'll be picking it up by 12/4. It looks identical to the picture below with only a few exceptions:

1. It will have a sissy bar on the back; and
2. It will not have stock pipes. I ordered the loud babies.

This comes with an AM/FM CD Stereo and I'll be able to play my iPod with it! Can't wait!

Do they offer XM or Sirius as options?

what good is the am/fm/cd with an ipod when you have loud pipes?

I believe they do...which is something I may consider down the road.

Well, I'm riding right now with the iPod and earphones. I think I'll be able to crank up the stereo loud enough for me to hear it.

Actually, the funny thing is that I looked it up. It's illegal to wear headphones/earplugs while riding a bicycle....not a motor cycle. Go figure.

They come in a black cherry color (same color as my current bike) which is the closest thing to Redskins colors. This cobalt blue color looks really sharp in person. My friend (Cowboys fan) is already teasing me that I'm picking Cowboys color.

I told him that if I were buying a Cowboys bike, it would have training wheels on it.

the other bike looked better.

this new one looks like the type that youd find a fat gay guy riding.

keep the old one. harleys aren't meant to have radios. perhaps you should go for a goldwing instead.

Newsflash. I'm a fat guy! :D Okay, maybe just stocky...but certainly not thin!

Actually, a lot of people that I ride with in the local H.O.G. chapter do a lot of riding of 100+ miles per trip and this bike is much more suited for those long trips than that other bike I had. That's a big reason I'm getting it. THe stereo is a little bonus.

Goldwing? Bite your tongue!
