Well, Road Thing, there you go. Three's the charm number for a set of S1's. I live in the near west side Memorial/Wilcrest area, adjacent to the west beltway 8.

Hello Buellguy03 - I think I'm going to stick to the $3950 for a while. I have taken such good care of this bike, it is so clean with the top of the line accessories and it is such a badass ride that I would rather keep it than insult it's integrity by dumping it. Thanks for the consideration, but I think I'll stick it out for a while. If it is still around after a period of time I might reconsider. I'm sure you know how the game is played - but that's the rub, isn't it? You have to gamble - do you hold out to see if you can save a couple of hundred bucks or does somebody else slip in and snatch a primo ride? The only reason I have considered selling it is because with 4 HD motorcycles, 2 offshore fishing boats, a hobby hotrod Z-28 and hunting seasons thrown in, I can't keep up with all the "stuff". I need some room back in the garage more than anything else. And, I told my wife I'd sell a motorcycle if she let me buy the other boat. Its not a money thing, its the spousal compromise thing. If I hold out for a while I think she'll let me slide - "Gosh, Honey, nobody would offer me what its worth so I'll have to keep it". Besides, look at it man, would you want to sell it? Remember the 5 laws of manly physics: guns, guitars, boats, motorcycles and fast cars. To forsake one by diminishing it's value for discarding it would be offensive, disrespectful and generally disdainful. This is the first posting I have ever tried listing it. Thanks for looking, though. Here's a couple of other pictures that didn't go in the first time.

I was in Dallas, that was why I asked, and it does not cost anything to ask. If you change your mind let me know, and I will come down and get it.

Buy the S1!!!

Jtm2,
You should sell one of your Harleys before you sell the S1, and should be asking at least $4500 for that Beauty.
The S1's, like all early tubers are a work of art...
