Default Got My Vin and Date

I went to the dealer to discuss finances, etc this afternoon. I got the vin # and an end production date of Jan 18th. A couple weeks after that I should have the bike they said.

A funny tid bit was I saw a nice hot weather armored BMW jacket and they only had 1 in my size of XXL. I'm getting the second bike in Austin, TX, so I asked the sales rep if the guy in front of me was my size and therefore likely to buy it. He replied, "She's quite a bit smaller than you, so I don't think she'll want it".

I bought it anyway (in case she grows and stuffed it in the front of the jacket I was wearing. I looked fat as hell going home. I could barely reach the bars on my Hayabusa. Funny since I own a gym and make a living as a trainer...

Yep! That "she" would be my wife. She's trading in her R1.
