Not this year. I have too many mods to buy and get installed, plus if the world doesn't fall apart a trip to Cairo, a wedding, two r&r's and whatever else comes up. Vegas would be cool, but knowing my luck I'd run into my ex. After all a Copper Red 8 with RDDRAGN on the tag would stick out like a sore thumb.

It's not but about 350.00 to fly though.......of course I'd have no fluids to change then.

Just an update, for anyone interested: It looks like the Dragon will hit the shop the 6th of March. I'm hoping that she'll be out in a week, so maybe not before my 45th, but shortly there after. I'm still stoked!

Dragon, take LOTS of pics! See if someone will shoot some video of you on the road after it's done, too.

I can't wait to see it!

I have permission to come to the shop any time I choose. There will be LOTS and LOTS of pics. I promise. My biggest anticipation is seeing what she will look like under different types of light.

They arent. It's just the picture. The much larger version shows them, but ya know I really had to look!

Probably no pics this weekend. We have some wicked storms coming in over night, and I doubt either I nor the guys in the shop are going to want to get out in it. I'm just glad she's inside. Maybe monday..
