First bike I ever rode on (as a passenger) was an early 70s triumph trophy. love the brand. In fact whenever I go to auctions or shows, there are always 70s bonnevilles for sale very clean and very affordable. Would love to buy one someday, but I can't justify it. love the rocket and the new thunderbird... maybe next time I switch up

I'm SOOOOOOO pissed. Bastards sold both bikes out from under me. I told them I was coming today for the 2009, and they sold it this morning. Took 1/2 day off work, drove 80 miles to pick the thing up that ****ers sold it 6 hours earlier.

Holy shit. I would be spitting nails right now.

Those ****ers owe you a bike and a little extra something for your troubles.

Sorry that happened. It's a common model, I bet you can find one soon.

Buying a motorcycle isn't like buying a car. It's more like buying a television.

They don't owe him anything if he didn't reserve it with a deposit, but they should have reminded him of that fact beforehand I think.

The way the economy is, with so much inventory on their floors, I guess I don't blame them for selling a bike to someone who was in the store with cash in their hand.

I totally understand it, and after the initial pissed off I get selling to the first person there with the money. I'm actually as pissed as anything that I took a half day off work and drove 80 miles for nuthin'.

only 8900 miles, a honda is just getting broken in at 10k. on the internet you can find a PDF copy of the owner's manual if you don't have one, and you can also get one of those shop manuals for this bike as well I bet. will help you learn it inside and out and do your own maintenance. On some bikes they recommend having the valve clearances checked at 10 or 12k, probably worth having done. No more than you will spend on maintenance on a Honda, hour or two of labor is an inconsequential sum.

congrats.
