Well I've just taken delivery of my 714ce FLTD and what a beauty it is, the pick of the UK bunch if I say so myself.

Oh, dear...

I swear, if I wasn't so focused on attempting a myrtlewood BTO, you all would have my wife killing me.

Thanks, the bear claws were a surprise, I'd concentrated on the back and sides when I chose it.

If it helps Nick, I found this one particularly easy to get wifely approval  :)

Thanks everybody, yes it does have quite a few bear claws that don't show up very well in the picture, in particular there's a very cool one just in front of the bridge.
