saw my sweetheart today

Well, I drove 90 miles to the dealership in Manchester, NH and put down another $500 on my black 2000 Nad. I have until May 1st to completely pay it off. After I took care of the paperwork I walked around and looked at the bikes there. The Triumph Trophy that I had originally gone down there to look at was there as well as the 1984 Honda GoldWing. While I was looking at a 113ci Harley Electra Glide they rolled a few bikes around to get one out and when I turned around there was my baby!!! Looked even better than I remembered. I spent some time looking it over better now that I am a bit more familiar with Nads. Not sure what is added on from stock though. Highway pegs look dorky, but are perfect ergonomically. I might take the Kuryakyn Ergo Duallys off my Valkyrie if I trade it in and try those out on it. I'm not too big on chrome doodads, but the fender tips and hoods on the turn signals, passing lamps and headlight look really super. I can hardly wait to get her out on the road and put some miles down. On the way home I stopped in Concord, NH and went to National Powersport Distributors and looked at the bikes there. They had an '04 Nad, but I like mine better; though it did have a hood on the speedo and I liked the looks of that a lot. Left that dealership and stopped for coffee and hit the road for home. Don't you know it started snowing just outside of Concord. Still snowing. Ah for spring.

You have to hold your nose while you type those lyrics to get the right pitch.

That's where it came from and you VR guys were right on it. I was holding my nose when I typed it.

That sure looks good. I hope your purchase does not make winter last longer.
