She likes riding on the back of the SV, figure that out

Yeah, I think it's the natural progression for the locals around here too. You reach a certain speed at the gap, where you either decide to move on from that rush by finding dirt or touring or you take it to the next level of stupid. I think I am at that point and I don't have any interest in uping the stupid. So it's on to slower stuff for me, I think.

I have no interest in cruisers.

im at the point were i almost have too many miles to think about selling the rc, if i did it would be almost like giving it away, so i think i will almost always have a SS in the garage...

but a klr 650 or versys would be a nice addition

Once I can ride again I want to get a motard and hooligan it up a bit.

But I'm young and dumb.

I'm hoping getting old means a Kawi Concourse in the garage.

Touring plus 160mph. Seems right to me!

You know Honda makes a nice little thing called an Interceptor. Still sporty but is also very comfortable, you just have to get used to that heavy beast. SM's are pretty comfy too and you can still track those.
