Yes, the big day is finally approaching !!! Whoo-Hoo !!! :grin: :toocool:
I deliver the GS750E to his new owner tonight and pick up my new 1200 Bandit tomorrow. Who'da thunk it would be 36 years almost to the day between new street bikes !!! My last new street bike was a 1970 Brand H CB750 bought in April of 1970. Of course I've had numerous new dirt bikes and used street bikes since then.....but it'll be a treat to have a new street bike again. The dealer gave me such a good price that part of the deal was for me to assemble and PDI the bike. The last time I assembled and PDI'd ANY bike was 1975 !!! My.....time do fly, don't it ??? :lol: :lol:
Well, off to the bank for a draft to pay the dealer the remaining balance.
Must remember to pump up the tires on the truck for tomorrow's pickup of the crated bike......then off to my good buddy's garage for the assembly process. It's a holiday weekend in the Great White North and it's supposed to rain some tomorrow....but Sunday and Monday are supposed to be clear and warm again. Good chance to get some break-in miles on my new ride..... :grin: :toocool: :banana:

Congrats! We'll expect pix of the new arrival. And make sure you get some final pix of the one you're putting to bed.
Hey, what's with crating up one bike and assembling the other. Are you saving on the "dealer prep" by not having them uncrate and assemble and add the fluids, or is that just a difference between the way they sell 'em, there and here?

Cool! I'd like to see some pics from sealed crate to finished bike!

Welcome to Banditland! I did a little better, I went from 1982 (xs650) to 2003 (FZ1) between New Bikes - I agree with DesolationAngel - document the process from crate to highway!
