I have a new ride!
Good morning…Well I did it. Yesterday, I was visiting a Honda dealer to look at the “Honda Red Tag Event”
They are reducing the 2012 Honda Goldwing by $3,000.00. They said to me, hey, things are quiet, take out the 2012 demo out for a scoot, and take your time. When I was out, they took a look at my 2005 Nad, so when I got back, we chatted…& they offered me $5,000.00 for my nad! I will be picking up the new wing next Tuesday. I just hope that I can still be welcomed at rallies as a guest...??? I would like to thank all of you for you friendship, knowledge & the gr8 times I had ridding with some of you! Should you allow me, I will not be a stranger on this board Cheers Ride safe! Vulcanguy AKA Guy

Congrats on buying your new motorized recliner!
I've learned to avoid dealerships at all costs... it gets EXPENSIVE! The last time I went in, it was for a $6.00 shim to complete the valve adjustment on my 9'er, and I left with my Nomad! (well, it took a week, but you get the picture)

Congratulations! Do you have to go to school to learn what all the buttons are for?

My brother has one, you can ride with him instead.
Seriously, congrats Guy, you must have a government pension or something. You didn't mention the color? Ride safe.

Congratulations Guy! That's quite a change from your Nomad.
We'll have to do a half way ride one day so we can all see the new bike.

Congrats on the Wing. By the way, you are welcome here and at any rally anytime. Heck, we even include Harley's although they have to ride in the back.

That's because the Vulcan's can't keep up otherwise.

You will have to change your 'handle' now. Can't be Vulcanguy. Let's see.......Wingguy, GWdude, Vulcannomore, Easysale,
I hope you enjoy your Wing. They really are nice rides.
