You forgot Stretch with the "rowdy NCR group"... he owns a Victory also.
I believe his is a Cross Country instead of the Cross Country Tourer... not positive, but think so. Geritol on the rocks!

It is NOT the Anniversary Edition. That was another 10 large and with the miles I put on it was not worth it. IF I was one of those guys that only puts on a few thousand miles a year I would be all over that 15th Anniversary Edition.

Tim has a Cross Country. Not to be confused with a Cross Country Tour.

What I find with a new bike is that the first 1,000 mi is a very exciting period. After that the bike begins to feel different until say about 5,000 mi. So I've concluded it's best to ride the 5,000 mi in one go and get it done. That's just my personal experience....
Enjoy your new ride! |

Butt jewelry... we call it. Seriously though... I have to agree. We buy these things to ride, not to just sit around and look at them. If you are riding it, no one sees much of it when you cruise by anyway... certainly not $10 grand more in accessories. You may think you look cool... but no one else does.

That's what I said if you "re-read" my post! A Cross Country... not a XCT...

Never trailered my bike to an event like you did Wilt. 42K on my Nomad and 4800 in 3 months on my XCT. What type of mileage does that chopped repaired HD have?
I could have gone the rest of my life without hearing "butt jewelry". Thanks for the image!!

Hey Gibby, I think you need a nice CT on that Vic before you get too far.
Something with an 'all-weather' tread! Guess I'll see it in June. Between here and the rally I have just 2 weekends to try getting in a long ride.
