Nice

I bought my only new bike way back in 1984 (a Honda 650 Nighthawk). Since then it's been used all the way.

While I don't like to take the depreciation hit on a new bike, there's nothing quite like going to the dealer for your new bike!

Either in the owner's manual (if they remembered to give it to you, or it's under the seat), or look at the battery under the seat.

Dark blue looks great!

and a naked one... mine

I've only had it for three days... I'm very excited..

The picture isn't very good as it was taken just on dusk.

There was supposed to be an image here -- I will fix tomorrow..

I actually ordered the 05 'candy blue' but this one arrived.. the dealer didn't mension anything until I brought it up...

between the 05 blue and the 06 blue its a no brainer. their is 2 different shades of blue on the 05 and IMO it look horrible.

so glad i got the '06

You just told like 50 people that their bikes look horrible.

Big ups, man. You rock. Welcome to the board.

I way prefer the '06 blue over the past years. Congrats on your purchase!
