Jamie, welcome to the wonderful world of Kirby ownership. The Legend II is considered to be one of the best Kirbys ever made. It should give you many years of trouble free service.
Here's a tip regarding polishing your Legend II to a brilliant shine. Use some Mother's Mag & Aluminum polish and some microfibre cloths to polish the aluminum to a nice shine. Mother's polish is available on ebay. Post some pictures after you get her all shined up.
