Didn't know that I had a twin!

New toy in the house!

Well, crap! So much for images, I acquired a 2016 Africa Twin with 762 miles on the clock.

That is all

Heh. It can be a challenge. I believe if you load on imgur and right click -> copy image address you'll have success. I find copying the suggested link doesn't work.

But congrats on the new bike!

Yea, I have photobucket and did a smugmug thinking it would work. Guess I will go to imgur next

Hells bells, if I sign in with chrome, the images are there.

Damn internet explorer.....

No images for me with Firefox.

Taking a big chance there buddy. Sounds like it's been beat to hell.

Good luck though.

Will work on images later tonight

Didn't know you had a twin? Dude, it says so right on the side of the bike: "Twin"

Congrats, bro. I could think of worse ideas for your mid-life crisis.

How many shekels?

DCT or regular clutch?

Any farkles?

I tried one of those bad boys out last summer, the throttle response was very impressive. Enjoy

No farkles as of yet, outback motortek crash bars and skid plate on order. Going nuts trying to figure out hard vs soft panniers.

DCT (Me: stopping at light, clutch, clutch, CLUTCH! oh, yea, never mind)

$9999, bought out of Texas, shipped here (would have done a fly n buy but vacation time is tight)

Could have bought new from local dealer for $13,106 (IIRC) OTD. I still need to pay taxes and registration ($900ish), so I figure that I am ahead by at least the $1124 in the crash bars.

Congrats on your recent purchase Gregory.

There's something about that bike that really intrigues me as well. I need to keep my eyes n ears open for an opportunity to test ride one at a dealership.
