Thanks for the welcome, everyone!
And LOL at chopperpaul!
Color wise, my preference would have been the Goodwood Green available on the 04/05 MY, but I'm happy with the Jet Black.
I'd love to make it down to Chehalis on the 1st, but there's no way I can make it there by 1pm. How long do luncheons like this go?
Also, here's how she looks when ready for a passenger...

Hi Zmilin, and thanks for the welcome!
I think you are correct. I bought her from a very nice guy in Snoqualmie named Dustin.
*edit* I checked and it is one and the same.

Hey welcome aboard, Fish. As you can already tell lots of great guys and gals on here. Sorry for all the times I miss our double X chromosome companions. Nothing personal. Anyway, it's cool that people recognize the bike you bought already. You will love it. Enjoy!!

Welcome Fish. Great choice in bikes. You'll love it! This is the best forum and you'll learn a lot and have some good laughs too.

Oh, and I should mention that according to my daughter, there are a million things wrong with me. 
I really appreciate the warm welcome and I am finding a lot of wisdom, humor, and a wee bit of dorkiness... which basically means I'm going to like it here and I look forward to riding with some of you in the near future.
The president of the company I work for has one of the 2009 50th anniversary Bonneville T100 bikes and was happy to see my America in the parking lot today. When we crossed paths he says, "Hey, Steve McQueen."
