Drove along way from Galveston to a place out in the country to meet with a very successful cattle rancher that sold me his goat. He said he bought it in 2015 as a tax write off and was going to take it on a adventure out in colorado but the trip never transpired.
He said the bike has never seen mud but it has 1,100 miles of cattle pasture time and I believe him.
Though the bike is very dusty from sitting in a pole barn, a quick spray from my garden hose revealed an amazingly clean machine.
As we exchanged formalities in the country store he also owns he looked me in the eye and smiled as we shook hands and said "You know you are getting a great deal don't you?" I told him yes I do and suddenly all seemed right in the world.

I'll post a few pix I took of it today.

I brought it home in the back of my F150. It's never ever going in the back of my truck again. Now Im searching for a good deal on a trailer with a side gate. LOL :)

One of the great things of a P5 is that it will ride nicely in the back of a pick up . Give it a few more shots in and out before you plunk down for a trailer . Sure like them yellow rigs .

Between the wheel wells I measure about 50-1/2" but with the aftermarket tires, wheels and spacers the bike is now at 55'' inches
Plus I have to haul another ATV and ice chest etc to the deer lease so, ya I have to find a trailer.
