| Hi fellow wing owners. After a long transaction with a nice man in Iowa I have an 04 ABS Silverwing. It has a tall windshield and Givi trunk new tires, so it is equipped just like I wanted it. I looked at some others but this one had the things I wanted. It has a few scratches but not bad. I have been on a few rides and it runs great. John in KC |

Enjoy your ride. I'm enjoying mine and looking forward to better weather days to come.
