How sweet it is

I went back to riding MC last yea after a many year absence. I had almost forgotten how much I enjoyed it. I traveled last year with a Rampage lift and enjoyed the ease of loading but out of five trips last year, I hit nasty weather on four of them. Takes a couple of hours to get the bike back cleaned up again.
Last month, I checked a nearby dealer and looked at the Octane and wound up bringing it home. Got most of it switched around where I want it - dinette gone, recliner in, new table made most of my stuff packed. Since I'm planning on leaving the north country next week, I loaded the bike for the first time today. Dang, is that sweet. Using a HF chock stabilized the front, rings are in just the right place and the softtail is tied down and ready to go.
Now to get through this week and get on the road to warm weather.
