My new '00 sapphire blue Sprint ST....

I took delivery of my new sapphire blue Sprint ST this past Saturday 
afternoon. While there was a threat of rain, I only experienced a few drops for 
about 5 miles of the 32 mile inaugural trip home. I had a wonderful time on the 
northern California back roads between Watsonville (the dealer: Triumph/BMW 
of Santa Cruz Co.) and my home in Hollister. The 3500rpm limit was just right.
Oh how I definitely enjoy this motorcycle!

Of the accessories that I purchased, only the rear hugger was in stock and 
installed. The bags, bag liners, tank bag, heated grips, and rear master 
cylinder 
cover were ordered and should be in this week. Installation will occur at the 
500 
mile service. I saw the alternative heated grip switch location in the FAQ on 
triumphnet's Sprint ST web site. I like that position better than that 
recommended 
by the factory. 

I sure look forward to a few sunny days so that I can add to the initial 46 
miles 
present on the odometer as I rolled into the garage for the first time (and 
where it 
has been parked since). At least get past the 100 mile threshold....

Eric, how close are you to begin taking orders for the 3M film?
