What's important is have you named her yet?

I was never one to name a bike. That would be like naming a cow that you are going to slaughter eventually. I don't want to get too attached in case i like something better later on.

Got the saddlebags installed last night. Easy install. I'll install the alarm tonight. Crash bars are on there way. The dealer ordered the extended reach seat for me yesterday at no extra cost to me. I felt like i needed to scoot back about an inch. I also found out that the extended reach seat has a gel pad seat so it will be even more comfortable.

Those bags flow perfectly with the lines of the bike. Looks like they have plenty of storage too.

Yes they do. That's what.i like about the Viking bag site. You can see exactly what they look like on your exact bike before you buy them. They do have plenty of storage space.

I installed the alarm last night but didn't connect the remote start feature. I'll have to figure out the wiring on the bike first. There's a hell of a lot more wires compared to the China bikes. lol I defiantly don't want to let the smoke out of the wires on this one.

I took the bike into work this morning. It was a brisk 51* on the way in. Brrr! Nah, it wasn't that bad. I made sure i had on enough layers of clothes on.

Be sure and take notes in case I pick up a Vulcan

I love the color scheme, didn’t think I’d like it but I really do! If it just had an option to move the controls back I’d be sold.
