Alex, she looks fantastic - and ready for another 50+ years of riding

And your attention to detail is fantastic; that's what 20+ years in the USN will do for you, folks!

Looking forward to seeing this in person sometime in the next few weeks...see you next Sunday.

Thanks brother! Hey, in a perfect world, we'd be doing our shakedown rides together up on the island. Looks like a perfect day for it. Alas, we'll have to settle for same-day shakedown rides. I only have about an hour to ride, then I'm taking the Mrs. to some C&V entertainment - the matinee of Oklahoma! at the 5th Avenue.

Thanks to everybody else for the compliments - glad you agree it's a beautiful machine. I'll try to post a few more pics of the shakedown ride. In the meantime, if you really want a glimpse into the weeds of the refurb, you can check the Flickr set: http://www.flickr.com/photos/3915149...7627733775953/
