Congrats Mike! Looks like you scored a great deal.

You really seem to have a thing for V-twins.

Beautiful bike. That Tuono was a real find.
I am getting the itch again.  I haven't bought a new  bike in almost a year.  Prices on used motos are very reasonable.  I have to start breaking the news to my wife. "I am going pick up a few overtime shifts at work in the next six weeks", "if I move one of the dirt bikes to the back of the garage I can fit the fifth bike in just fine", "this one is different than the Superhawk, it will fill a gaping hole in my armamentarium", etc.  I can't seem to get an '08 CBR1000rr out of my head. But I am open to suggestions.
