I am now the happy owner of a Black 2011 Concours.
The day started on a train heading north at 6:50 AM. Transferred to a bus at 9, finally arrived at the sellers a little after noon. After about an hour of the paperwork being taken care of, paying the man, and 30 minutes of telling me things about the bike I already knew, I was off for the 4 1/2 hour ride home...and I don't think I will do something like that again! Nothing in particular, just the entire ordeal was very long and hot and riding a bike I'm not familiar with for that long of a ride was probably pushing it.
Congrats. I know I could not go through something like that!
My initial impressions are that this thing is a blast! It's smooth, power to burn, and very stable.
Indeed. You will love it more, the more you ride it.
The seller added wedges that I'm not too sure I'll keep, I want to compare bar heights before I make any decisions, although an easy decision was made about an hour into the trip...the seat is CRAP! I'm certain with all the moving around I was doing, half the cagers thought I had a hemmoroid, and the other half tried to stay the hell away from me.
Well, my seat was replaced before I even rode it the first time (had to because I needed much lower). I do like my Sargent and there are lots of nice options out there.
I also know I want a different screen, maybe a pipe...although not hearing the whine of an exhaust for that length of time was kinda nice.
Yeah, quiet *is* nice, for you and others too. Plus, quieter= faster!

And BTW ZG, I found a painter that will get rid of this black for me and paint it burgundy.... ![Shocked :o](http://zggtr.org/Smileys/default/shocked.gif)
