Re: Anyone from eastern PA ?
Sure.
Just don't go in the water. Our Mayor pumped untold gallons of raw sewage in to the water recently to avoid it backing up into the hotels. It seems the previous Mayor decided an International Soccer complex was more important that over due repairs to the sewage lines (and the roadways).
You may have seen the news reports of folks getting the skin eating disease from swiming or falling in to the water here with in the last couple of weeks.
FYI
Vacationers may want to hold off buying your tickets till they clear this **** up.
I'm not trying to be negative...I'm just fed up with the ignorance that is ruining Paradise.

Is Williamsport close enough? I have friends that ride up from Philly and Lancaster because the roads down there suck.
Another friend gets a hotel here on long weekends because he thinks we have some of the best roads available in the northeast. That's a guy that took a riding vacation to europe, so I figure he knows what he is talking about.

Re: Anyone from eastern PA ?
I bought mine in Connecticut. It was a 4 hour drive on Easter Sunday, and well worth it. The 6000 mile beast is in beautiful condition !! And fun as hell to ride ... as you all know.
Denmah, is that the one that was just for sale in Macungie, for sale on cycletrader.com (I believe it had a lower fairing)
Mine has TBR pipes, a Sargent seat (very comfy) and I already added a Targa dark smoke windscreen and tank bra. It also came with Gen-Mar bar risers (and I had already bought a new set). One other thing I bought is a Ventura rack, I plan on mounting a Givi E360 top case to it, for those occassional over-nighters, using an E250 universal plate.

go with a tank pad instead of the bra.... I can't stand the bra on bikes and it tends to do more damage then good on all bikes I've ever seen them on... rest of the mods are nice but I'm more for the aggressive sporty stuff rather then touring mods

Re: Anyone from eastern PA ?
yes, that is the point .... to each his own.
I actually like tank bras, this is my third bike with one. I never had a problem.
The "touring" items just add to it's practicality for me. Again, not my first bike with them.
I personally do not like total rear fender removals, huggers, and I do not like most of the lowers that are made for the Superhawk.

I'm not that far away in Buffalo, NY but I will be in Carlisle, PA this weekend for the Spring Carlisle show/swap meet but with my Avalanche - can't carry many old truck parts home on a Superhawk 
Are helmets still optional in PA? I took a trip out to mid ohio back in '95 to get my Nighthawk 750 and it was wierd to see people riding without them in PA and OH...
