I am stoked. Got my 04 500 this weekend and love it. I found this site when I was looking to buy, and knew that so many people who loved thier bikes could not be wrong. The bikes got 11k miles, new tires, and was $2500. I've put 200 miles on it already. Thanks to all who love thier bikes enough to post. The weather is pretty crappy today I will post pics asap.

congrats on the new bike! and welcome
