    good deal. enjoy your new ride

    I was sorta the same way. I have a 2011 and 2012 bike (not a wing) and was not thinking about another one. we received a post card in the mail and my wife said oh my gosh have you seen the new wing? I said yep set on one a couple days ago. she said I think you need one they are beautiful. and she does not even ride.
    you know the rest of the story

    the first 1800 was Illusion Blue, that was fast, put almost 100,000 miles on it but I wasn't satisfied. Then I bought a 08 red , this one was faster and even had a navagation system on it so I wouldn't loose my way so I put on 80,000 very fast miles on that but I still wasn't satisfied. So for my wifes birthday I bought a new Pearl White on and found that this was indeed the fastest one so far, I think because it is a Ghost.

    PS am I not a good husband or what.

    As Paul Harvey JR would say stay tuned for the rest of the story as the ride continues. (Thats my story and I'm sticking to it(:


    PS always put new crush washers in also and thats what makes the difference!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

    It is true, the red ones are fast, but the white ones are almost as pretty!

    And also White is the absolute best at reflecting a police laser beam back. Black is the most stealthy.
