New Ride
« on: May 15, 2012, 09:07:21 AM »
Pulled the plug and traded my 09 Concours for a 12 model.  Just could not help myself.  Love the dark Maroon color.  Had 37000 miles on the 09 without a problem.  Hope the 12 exceeds that

Congrats! I'd love to hear your thoughts on how you like the new one. I'm pretty close to pulling the trigger myself.

Good move. I did it last year going from an 08 to an 11. Haven't looked back.

Thinking about a similar move but I can't overcome the fact that I paid about $6k for my 08 with ABS and 3 year extended warranty with 3k on it and last year I racked up about 30k on top.  If I were to purchase a new one the difference in cost would be a lot more then I like not to mention they don't have the ZX14 motor in it yet.  If they were to do that then I would not have to make a decision the HP would make it for me :)
