WooooooooooHHHooooo!! I am still sick and on the mend............but I can barely keep the smile off of my face..........after posting pics I think I'll go and sit on it again. *BS* Our ride up there this past weekend was .........well very tiring. Back Roads Triumph is indeed "Back Roads". All in all the guys were great at the shop and the America is just awesome. Rich took it for a test ride. He said I am going to love it...........it rides so smooth, handles so easy, turns, etc. I was slightly jealous when he got to ride it without me. But I was happy when he got back. It looks so hot..........even with Rich on it *wink*. My hubby being Mr. Anal clean man..........1st thing we just had to do when we unloaded it was wash and wax it. Then we stripped off the pillion pad and back pegs. If you are used to loud bikes..........and I am..........The Triumphs are VERY quiet. We researched pipes and removing the baffles even before we got the bike. In the end they had these perfect for me "Fish Tail" pipes for just $150. for both. So we got those too. We can't put them on until the bike is broke in and one other thing that I just can't think of right now. But while I was at the grocery store yesterday. Rich just couldn't stand it and had to try the Fish Tails on the Triumph. Man...........do they look good. And LOUD...........WOW! But now he has to take them off and put the originals back on. I can wait. What I can't wait for is the class (10 days!) and then lots of practice and bonding time with my new baby. Thanks for all of your support and information! ~*~ Painted Lady
