This is the One. The bike I wanted, nay, lusted after. Same blue. Same hard bags. It spoke to me. It called to me. It said, “ride me into the sunset.”

Then life happened. I realized that the little girl who was on her way was more important to me than any motorcycle. One day I shall have that bike. One day I shall ride into the sunset. But before I do:

I should, but I won’t. No place to store it . No way to ride it with my wife’s blessing. Time is a fickle thing. When the right time rolls around, I’ll get it.

Lake amphibian!  There’s a couple of those at my airport.  They both seem to be needing restoration, an expensive venture...

Had the same thought with the Triumph.

Ended up with the Honda 919 and I still regret it.

Oh nice! I got a triumph trophy 1200 a bit older than that. Solid bike all around. I imagine the sprint is a bit more on the sport side of sport touring when compared to the trophy.

Get one while good ones are still available. Ev en if you don’t ride it much, keep it nice for yourself....and maybe even your daughter someday :P
