Default Made it back home with my baby

Flew out Friday at 10:am from Houston, made a pit stop it Chicago, arrived in Knoxville at 5:pm. Went to check out the ride, took about 31/2 hours to check out the important stuff, frame, numbers,engine,etc. Laid down the cash, got on the road headed back to Houston. 952 mile and 16 hours later, pull into the driveway at 11pm Saturday night. No problems at all. crusied 65-70, although I did run it up a bit more occasionally.

Did get some rain and a bit dirty, so got up this morning washed, wax, vaccumed, changed the oil and then took a brake and just staired at her.
I'm very pleased with her and there are a few thing that I need to repair, all minor items and one brake caliper.

Will be asking a couple of question in another post, asking for some knowledge.

I read the post, but didn't see what kind of baby? I'm 20 miles south of Knoxville, wonder if I ever seen it?
