This should be my last bike for a long time. I also plan on keeping the Hawk for a long time as well.

Sounds like my wife has a sister

Just remind her it’s an investment!

My wife told me last night that she wants to ride with me on this bike. I can't get her to ride on the Hawk or the Ghost. I didn't tell her it doesn't have a passenger seat. Oh well, Looks like I'll have to spend some money on accessories already.

My wife said the same thing to me in the past as well when i had a Honda Fury chopper.. so i bought a low sissy bar and sadly made holes in the rear fender (a permanent mod) and then she wound up riding with me once or twice

I got home kind of late so didn't get to take a long ride. But the short ride was a blast. I'm still grinning ear to ear. Bike look much better than the pictures. She's so smooth and comfortable. Took me a few times to get use to the forward pegs. I missed the pegs the first few take offs. Definitely has more than enough hp . Engine brake is ridiculous but didn't take long to get use to it. The blue is not as bright as it is in the picture. It has a more greyish tint to it.

Thanks, I think it is too. Lol she's got a twin sister at the dealership I could hook you up with.
The salesman that sold me the bike was such a pleasure to deal with. When I had ailed him for the out the door price, within 10 or 15 minutes he emailed me back. He gave me a great deal . No extra fees like dealer prep and destination charges. He even topped off the tank with fuel and loaded the bike on the trailer for me. It was worth the long drive.
