Had the same thing when I first put down the money for mine. Major buyers remorse. I get more comments from people wherever I go now than any of my Harley riding friends. Just went to my first big rally of the season here and had a steady stream of admirers stopping by to look at her.

As far as handling goes, you will find that the Triumph handles curves with a grace that is really remarkable for a cruiser. It has the comfort of a cruiser, but it doesn't handle like one.

Perform a little bafflectomy or just add some new pipes and you can get a really nice sound out of her too. The bike, combined with the expertise and friendliness I've found here in this forum, have really made my experience owning a Triumph a great one. Hard to imagine getting a different bike now. Anyway, I say congratulations man, buyers remorse aside you'll probably love it if you're looking for something a little more nimble.
