Name's Tom. Got my 1999 Purple Pavement Pounder this past week. See avatar. Squeezed in a ride between the rain forecast all week. It's a definite rush for an 800 owner when the tach climbs past 4K. Am thinking my first mod will be the addition of seatbelts...

Get some grips made for a Jet Ski. They're sticky, and help you hang on.

I just bought my 1998 with 15K on her. A have taken a 950+ miles trip to Iowa so far and the Connie is all I was hoping for plus some. I have put a pair of bar risers on her, and will be installing an Audiovox CCS-100 cruise very soon. Just gotta find time when I can stand to not ride for a couple days.

All I have right now is a bad cell phone picture from the second day of ownership. I'll try and get some better pictures this week. There have been changes and about three thousand miles since June . There would be more miles but I split my riding between three bikes .

Green, 97

2008 Concours14. Just over 12,000 miles on it. Replaced the stock shield with a V-stream and added risers and a topcase.

Hey, fella, nice bike! Hope all is well in MO. As you can see, I'm also a Connie owner now. Found a pristine clean 1999 machine (the pristine part has rubbed off by now...) and am having a blast learning how to run with it.

Hope we meet up again sometime. Enjoyed my trip to Piedmont last year, and am looking forward to some longer trips like that in the future.
