I just put 700 miles on mine this weekend going to the Delmarva Bike Rally in Ocean City, MD (putting me over 7K miles since March). She handled like a dream. I was very comfortable even in the rain at night. I was able to easily keep up with my brothers tweaked Suzuki M109R (1700cc), and a friends modified Star Raider (1900cc). Actually both riders indicated how quickly the Connie comes up on them when I was following or how quickly I left them when I was in the lead. I also got the best gas mileage of the group getting a high of 43.7 MPG. I got over 250 miles on one tank - stopping once to the Raider's two stops (man those big V-Twin's can drink fuel). All in all, they both envied my ride
.
During the weekend, I was the one who carried all the swag we picked up at the vendors. I called the Concours my man purse
. Because of me their wallets were a little lighter as they wouldn't have purchased nearly as much stuff if I wasn't there with my hard bags.
