I am back with my new bike. The trip was an adventure......and although I probably made a mistake by buying a bike so far away from home......it is a nice bike and I don't regret having done it. I traveled a total distance of 1,400 miles, paid $ 50 in bridge and highway tolls, $ 200 in gas, and it took a bit more than 2.5 days.
On the way up I stopped at a place called Bills Old Bike Barn. The place is filled with old motorcycle and other stuff......only $ 5 for a visit and well worth the money. It is located along I-80 in Bloomsburg, PA and a good way to spend an hour or more stretching your legs. Here is a link to the site where you can take a virtual tour:

It has a Supertrapp muffler installed, and I really have not had a chance to ride it more than up and down the block - hopefully I will get to do that today. Here is the bike with the original owner seated just before we loaded it up.
