Bill doesn't sell to people from Texas, Stev-o!  ;D
LOL, sorry, couldn't resist.  He told me earlier it's a parts bike, which could come in handy for me building this 500 & 550!

Aw, you know I'm kidding anyway.  If I had to live somewhere other than Georgia, I've always said that I'd live in Texas.  I love the land and the people there.  On my trip back across the country with my Jeep, I enjoyed my time in Texas probably the most of any of the states.
