| I bought our SW in 2008 for my wife. She laid it down twice while standing at stop signs and only wants to ride behind me now. It's too tall for her. I have a VTX 1800 for myself. So I have been riding both. But I enjoy this SW so much I sold my VTX yesterday and plan to put many miles on the SW. She is a sweet ride! We live in Red Oak, TX... Any member's here?  |

| Hi SilverPops, Welcome to the forum. Happy to have you onboard. I had a 59 HD panhead for 20 years and after I got my 2008 SWing, I sold the Pan and never looked back. Yes... the SilverWing is a sweet ride and from what I've been told.... it gets better with time.  |

Welcome to the forum and am glad you joined. I have had my SWing for 3 years and 30,000 miles and still really enjoy this bike. I've had many m/c's in the last 30 years or so and this is my favorite. Again, welcome. _________________ Ride safe, JeffR 2007 Silver Wing (30,000 miles) 2005 Majesty 400 (sold 12,500 miles) 2004 Reflex (sold 3,500 miles) Givi Windshield, top case, vista cruise, power commander, dr pulley sliders, air hawk seat pad, (J.

| WARNING---WARNING  Reading this forum leads to Silverwing modifications and Ralley attendance which could be harmful to your bank account and consume large ammounts of time. The good news is it will make you smile alot.  Welcome to the forum and I should have added that it will cause other bikes to stay parked. I sold a new 1800 and have three others that dont get much attention. |
