[Silver Bullet]

I just got my 2009 Silver Goldwing this week. It has a little over 3,000 miles on it, and still smells new. Looking foreward to many miles of enjoyable riding on the Silver Bullet. I am 6'6" tall so will likely be looking into a new seat to get some more leg room. I like the idea of the Mick-O-Pegs as well. I am in the San Antonio area and will be hitting the three sisters in the hill country this weekend. Look foreward to being part of this forum. You have already helped me while I was lurking.

Hello and welcome to the forum.
Congrats on getting a Wing. Post some pics for us.
There are numerous manufacturers of seats it just depends which one you'd like.
Some like Corbin or Ultimate or Saddleman.

Ride that Silver Bullet & welcome to the GWOF. If you've been lurking then you already know what a great place you've found.

I always thought the Mick's looked good too. I'm not as tall as you so have no issue with Kury's.

As far as the seat goes you may want to check these guys out. They have a mod. for tall people that may interest you.

Hello and welcome from a fellow Texan about 300 miles NE near Tyler. Lived in San Antonio back in the early seventies, moved away and moved back in the middle 80's. Eventually moved to Troup, near Rusk/Jacksonville/Tyler area. Got kiddos and grand kiddos in Austin as we burn up the pavement frequently via Hwy 79. The 3 Twisted Sisters are great as I did that this summer on the way back from Big Bend. Sounds like you've got a great ride.

Welcome to the GWOF...My son is there at Fort Sam Houston. I guess I will be coming out that way in late April for graduation.

From Texas? That's strange. Hardly a member from Texas on this board. By the time you read this you should have some pictures of the Twisted Sisters ride to share. Sorry to hear that you're 6'6''. It's a small world out there.

Thanks for the nice welcome. Did about 350 miles today in the hill country, The twisted sisters and and ran 55 up and back to Rock Springs. I will definately need some seat modification and some hiway pegs. But other than that, had a great ride. I didn't push the wing hard, but it ate up the road and asked for more. So smooth, major improvement over my old ride. Sorry, but no pictures yet. I need to figure out how to post them. I am used to functioning on the fringes of an off the rack world.
