Cool Liz. Already starting to personalize with fringe on the levers.

Beautiful bike! Congratulations!

Yes added a windshield today after we got the 600 miles in was a little windy but a good day. We also got the oil change in it today. So ready for some more riding. Was ready for a taller windshield the wind coming over that short one was like having no shield at all.

YEAH!!!! Go give everyone the bug, will ya.

That is a great lookin one though. If you got the blue, Twylla has a red, and Annette gets a green one, whats that gonna leave me?? A Voyager........

or a Road Glide Tourer......

What's with all the girls getting a Vaquero? Reminds me of the song, "Save a horse ride a Vaquero". OK, maybe not!

Well Jesse it might. You never know.
Jim feels like he is working like a dog getting it set up for me
But I figured it is keeping him busy :-)

kawgirl · 10-29-2012, 07:26 PM

Purty one Liz. I'm still pondering........

I bet he is enjoying every (almost) minute. That blue is beautiful.

Fed-X stopped by and left Liz's passenger back rest and quick disconnects for the Vaquero. Went out to the garage, removed the seat, bags and trim pieces, drilled the holes in the trim pieces for the quick disconnects. Put the trim pieces back on and installed the disconnects. Installed the bags and seat back on the bike. Assembled the backrest and installed it on the quick disconnects. The dealer in Kansas quoted one hour labor ($75.00) to do this. I did it in about 20 minutes. So far I have changed the oil and filter, installed the 12 volt power point in the fairing, installed the GPS mount, installed the taller windshield, the quick disconnects and backrest. I see a big steak dinner in my future!!!

I can see more than a steak dinner in your future Jim.... but we won't go into that right now.

**BudMan** · 11-01-2012, 02:19 PM

Sounds like she's been keeping you busy.
