Well ,after waiting 4 months since I bought my new `04 XB9S,I finally got to ride it this weekend. And the wait was worth it.After 25 years of dirtbiking it was a bit hard not to ride it like one ,but once I relaxed and let it do it thing,it was great!It was a little rough at first but started to smooth out after a while .I`m sure it`ll get better after break in. I`v been lurking around the website for a while now and all I could do was read about the bike ,but it was nice to finally get to experience what you guy`s have been talking about. I bought my bike at Trev Deeley Harley Davidson in Vancouver,B.C.,Canada ,and it was a very good overall experience.I got a good deal and they really seem to care.I almost bought one at one of those other dealers and now they only have one `04 bike in stock. Trev deely is a 4 hour drive for me but after the way they treated me ,I would drive 6,or 8 or ,,,well you get the picture. I really like this website and hope to go riding with you all someday.If you`re ever up here in twisty British Columbia ,give me a call. Gord | ||

Hiya, Gord! Hey, we're almost neighbours--I'm out in the Kootenays. Just got my XB9R home, but I kinda wished I'd dealt with Deeley in Vancouver--buying from Kamloops H-D has not been a totally satisfying experience. Haven't got a license on the bike yet, but soon...I really wanna ride this thing! | ||

Who do you know in your neighborhood? Can you say Slocan Valley? I knew you could! Looks like lunch or dinner at The Mushroom Addiction in Needles or that mexican restaurant in Roseberry is in order lads. bake | ||

Bake, I'm in...maybe a few weeks yet, though, for Highway 6 to dry out and come clean (I drove it yesterday, still a few shadowy corners that are still damp by late afternoon...). We may have few Buell dealers here, but we got the real Buell roads! | ||

Ahhhh, Bake...the Mexican restaurant in Roseberry...I dream about that place all winter! Can't wait for summer holidays to scoot on out there and eat like a pig! Never eaten at the Mushroom...too busy hopping on the ferry for the run up to the Goldpanner east of Cherryville! God, I envy you guys living out there...Alberta roads suck! Any jobs left in BC????? | ||
| Geoffg |
"Any jobs left in BC?????" No...we've outsourced everything to Alberta  | ||

Yep, a weekend ride out to the Kooteneys is on the books .Maybe a little camping ,I`ll bring my motorcycle blender for some XXX slushies.(I`m not kidding) | ||

Well then Geoffg, I think you better INSOURCE them BACK so I can get outta this stinkin province! | ||

i agree Trev Deeley was really a good customer service experience for me last year. The sales guys spent about 3hours over a couple of visits answering questions etc. and were quick to offer a demo. Unfortunately they couldnt compete with Barnes sale price at the time so I bought my 9S there. -2 services at T.Deeley have been good experiences. |
