Gary N. Posted March 8, 2008 Share #1 Posted March 8, 2008 I put a deposit down on a '06 Black Cherry. Blues Lover told me about it so I stopped at the shop in London last weekend on the way to the Kitchener M&E and was only able to see it through the front window because they were closed. After several e-mails back and forth this week, they saw the light and we came to an agreement on the phone this morning. Can you think of a better way to spend your time in the middle of a blizzard? Sure hope my old body will let me ride again. I guess we're going to find out. Just have to wait for the snow to melt enough to get my trailer out of the barn.

lonestarmedic Posted March 8, 2008 Share #14 Posted March 8, 2008 Go for it! Add chrome! Ride it til the wheels fall off. Go visit places that you went before and enjoy the memories. Visit new places and meet new friends. I love the black cherry color, it reminds me of my old Gold Wing. Looks fantastic in the light. Oh, as the old body gets on just remember Lowell. He is my hero! What is he 68 or 69 and riding to Daytona and any other place he feels like. We are only as old as we let ourself be. Take care JB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JPM Posted March 8, 2008 Share #22 Posted March 8, 2008 Nice going Gary. I love that color. It will show off all the chrome real well. As stated above, keep the workouts going.
