I've really liked the R18 since it came out. And yes, the springer Harleys are a classic kind of cool.I always loved the look of the Softail Springer, with all the vintage springs suspension and chrome up front. Of late the BMW R 18 looks fabulous!
I've had my eyes on Ducati Multistradas for awhile. I haven't ruled out getting one.
Nice bike.
Poor motorcycle.
One of the key factors in my selling my bike was the experience of a friend who was a by-Ghod professional racer. He had taken delivery of a new bike and rode it out for an impromptu test drive. A woman in a station wagon broadsided him after she ran a light. The vehicle rolled over him, and his leathers got caught on something under the car, dragging him along while the catalytic converter burned his arm to a crisp. He lived, somehow, and spent the better part of a year rehabilitating after healing numerous broken bones and skin grafts.
Really cheap bike that's easy to maintain. Bought it for $600. put a new top end on it, and it's run like a top since. It was a great starter bike when my kids were pre-teens. Likely going to sell all 3 of them in the next couple of months, along with our jetskis. We just don't use them anymore.
You may have misunderstood what I meant. I was feeling sorry for the motorcycle given the rider in the pic. I was being sarcastic.
That too. I feel sorry for the tires and wheel bearings.
Fully aware.
