Finders fee?  [drink]

I know, just by way of me wishing you the best with this transaction, you should  supply frosty adult beverage.

Man, with all the finder's fees I have to pay I might as well go spend 3 grand more on a new one.  [roll]

If you get it and host the shindig  by next Wednesday I might just show with a frozen case of 24oz. Fosters "Oil Cans"
(I think our next "beer giveaway" is next Tuesday)e
That would alleviate some debt and  anxiety, simultaneously...

IP let me know if you still need me to help tote it back up the WRL.  I'll ride it or truck it.  Preferrable ride  [evil]

IP, did you buy it?  I noticed it's gone off Craigslist!

This is a crazy time to shop for an SC...  3 more have popped up for sale on ducati.ms just this week.  In fact, another 06 black one posted up today, and he's in Dallas.  He's asking $9500 with mods.

Now I gotta wonder why mine didn't sell at $7800?  I guess it was fate!  If it had sold, I'd have missed the HC ride!  [leo]

Ambition is a poor excuse for not having sense enough to be lazy.

The bike is MINE!!  Almost.

Haven't posted yet today because I've been doing all the paperwork nonsense, getting insurance, etc. Everything except for a copy of the title has been sent to my lending organization and that will happen tomorrow morning when the owner gets it outta his safe at home.

Beyond that, it's just a matter of making a little room in the garage and heading out there Saturday after 2 to pick 'er up.

Bryant has opted to further earn his finder's fee by driving my ass out there to get 'er. Gotta love the friend with a truck! (yes, yes, the newbie is a little scared to be riding that far on highway. Don't make fun of me. I want to be more confident on the bike before I'm scared shitless by an 18 wheeler.)

Now, onto the first two things I'd like to buy. I need opinions. I just want to be safe and keep her upright and protected from my ignorance as much as possible.
