I am about 55 minutes south of DownTown. I live right behind the mall in Bourbonnais (Kankakee County). Take I-57 south to exit 315 and I am right there. I got my busa today! I will get some pics up as soon as I can. Can't wait for the break-in to be over with! The wife and I are riding all this weekend (my dad is babysitting) as long as it isn't raining.

In ebay, a store
has an interesting option that you gotta win the auction first, and the summit the size and the color, that you need...(have some color choices...) I'm not sure they still do it or not...its been awhile...

About pants: try Sliders (a bunch of the online shops sell them). They're essentially jeans with a bunch of Kevlar - much more than any of the other pants out there. Not as safe as leather, but dang close. I just finished a 3-day ride in 85-90 weather and they were pretty nice...

 

[CCbusa05]

Welcome aboard......sounds like you got a pretty decent deal on that new 05! You'll love it!
Oh, about looking for a babysitter.......piece of cake, you got a live in one right there at home.....the wifey!

Sneak on out in the garage and put the hump on and go solo!
