That is a pretty thorough description of what happened. If only you had included the wind speed/direction, humidity, and visibility, then we could possibly figure out what went wrong:justkidding:!!! Actually I figure it was mostly the deer's fault for not crossing at a properly marked deer...

Seems like at least a couple of times a week somebody in an Expedition or Yukon is asking me "What kind of gas mileage do ya' get on that thing" and I always smile and say "Better than your'e getting in that 'Thing'"!! Usually it's some guy (or occasionally a lady) who says they had a bike...

Nice looking bike but I wonder if it will be available in a faster color like BLUE:thumbup:

Isn't it amazing how different riding a motorcycle is compared with driving a car. I was trying to explain this to a new rider wannabe the other day and I don't think they really got it. Anticipation of what the other driver is gonna do is paramount to your survival and this post highlights...

I do not have a FE kit on mine even though I think it definitely cleans up the look of the bike I wanted to have options for mounting saddlebags in the future. Rode into work today with the bags loaded and had no problems at all. I am using the deluxe bags and attach the bottom corner straps...

The magnets seem pretty strong, but I haven't cut off the straps. Thought I'd wait until I load them up to see how the magnets hold. Has anyone loaded the tank bag up and gone for a ride??

George W. Bush - Worst president in the history of the USA. Our country had budget surpluses before him, now we have record debt. Took all the support we had from our allies after 9/11 and threw it away into the sink hole that is Iraq. I actually remember paying 69 cents for a gallon of gas...

I lived in the subburbs of London, England back in 1980-82 and I would like to remind everyone contributing to this thread that in most of the UK/Europe people actually have a viable choice in public transportation. Whether it is the bus, subway, or train, the price is reasonablly cheap...

:Sport:What a bargain!! I checked them out on the web and ended up ordering both types of saddlebags and a tank bag too. I have been looking for a deal and this is it. I will use these mostly for weekend trips the wife and I take on our bikes. They should be able to handle that with ease...

They look pretty good for the price. Do they come with any sort of rain fly?
