All I can say is...wow. just. Wow.
In lieu of a long write-up feel free to follow my pics:

The short story is I flew to Huntsville, where the amazing dealership D&H Cycle picked me up and drove me south 40 minutes to Cullman. There I saw my machine for the first time (I'd done the transaction over the phone and by mail).
After an extensive orientation, I headed up to Lookout Mountain to stay with my brother Ray. Because of the late start, I rode most of the way in the dark. Note to new riders--get to know the left-hand switch gear well before you ride in the dark
Route from Cullman
On Saturday, we picked up my other brother Jack as well as our pal Dave and rode to Riders Hill in Dahlonega, so Ray could get a tire and I could put miles on the bike. Needless to say, riding from anywhere to Dahlonega is a motorcyclist's [insert adjective] dream
Route to Dahlonega & back
Wow. Just. Wow.
On Sunday I rode around Chattanooga a bit, eating lunch with a friend and then just riding around. I wandered up Racoon Mountain and took panoramic pictures. I also headed back to Lookout, stopping at favorite Civil War places from my childhood (having grown up on Lookout).
Monday I rode the long way back to Cullman. I took the long way back, south on Lookout Mountain, then stopping at Little River Falls. I ended up putting exactly 600 miles on the bike when I showed up at the dealer Tuesday morning.
Route Back to Cullman
After Nick did the initial service, I rode to Atlanta for meetings with a client. Stayed that night with pals in Little Five Points. The next morning I had another meeting (with a different client), then headed WNW. I rode around Athens, then through Greenwood, Clinton, and Chester, SC, picking up the interstate in Rock Hill.
Route through South Carolina
I spent the night in Kannapolis, NC, and headed back to Richmond via 85N to 40W to SR49N all the way to Crewe. Then 360 to RIC.
Wow. Just. Wow.
An incredible bike. Power, comfort, flickability (yes, I said that), maneuverability, real cruise control, and so on. Very happy with my decision. The Norge will get lonely.
