Okay folks, enough is enough. It's April 1st and I have been toying with you. The Goldwing was a joke. I didn't plan this as an April Fool's gag, but with the timing it just worked out that way. I have had a few good laughs watching everybody guessing what I was buying.

Seriously, here is my new ride. I am picking it up later today.

It's a 2011 Electra Glide Ultra Limited in psychedelic purple/vivid black. The photo really doesn't do it justice, the purple is lighter and is metallic up close.

103 ci engine
oil cooler
ABS brakes
heated grips
security system
4 speaker AM/FM/CD/WX/CB w/intercom

Yes, I know it was an emotional decision, not necessarily a practical one. I walked onto the showroom floor and this bike just grabbed me.

I'll get some pictures of it in my garage and get them posted so you know I'm not kidding around now.

That's one expensive ride. I guess the insurance check was good. You and Greg will have a lot to talk about.
