New Connie owner in the PNW

[KrautBurner]

hello all,

my name is Russ,
I traded in my 2004 VFR800 abs on tuesday on a new connie14abs

so far,
I'm loving the bike,

it's amazing with how large (and heavy) this bike is,
how easy it has been getting used to it

within 20 hours of leaving the dealer (it rained for the first 14 hours)
I almost had the "chicken strips" completely removed (3/8" left / 5/8" right)

Welcome to the forum and congrats on getting the C14. Its the best bike I've ever owned including my old C10.

I wish I could,

my company has a location in stafford,
I looked into it a little, but no positions for me

Please excuse my ignorance but what is PNW? Pilbara North West maybe??

[jonathan]

Pacific North West. Kind of redundant when you think about it. After all how would you have an Atlantic North West? It usually refers to the Washington, Oregon, Idaho area of the US.

Thanx Jonathon, silly me, it's so obvious when you see the answer.....
