Two currently. Kawasaki 750 project bike and a new RE650 GT that is my daily driver.

But in the past had 29 MGs and about a dozen Japanese bikes and a BMW. I stayed pretty busy fixing up bikes as a young man.

Still hanging out here because MGs were such a large part of my life for so many years and I really like most of the owners. Yinz are good guys!
yeah, I might be addicted to brake fluid. But I can stop any time I want.

California Vintage x2
V7-III Stone
California 1400 Custom x2

Now my Guzzigander motorcycle rental business is no more, I guess I'll be culling the fleet somewhat.

Still, it's going to be difficult to sell.  I'll probably start with models I have two of.

When it comes to motorcycles, I've settled to being a serial monogamist. I've had several bikes. The few times I had two or more, they started to whisper "Why aren't you riding with me?" when I took the other one out. They would purposely get in the way when I did stuff in the shop. They would all whine for washes and valve clearance adjustments and carb syncs and oil changes. Tires and bulbs  and cables.  "Hey, SHE got a new air filter!" "Yeah but SHE got new tires!"  The bickering was endless. It got to the point where I had to leave the garage just to get some peace.

Don't know how you guys do it.

As I write this the voting indicates three models is the most common.  I'm in that group with three models, five bikes total. Moto Guzzi (2) Honda (1) and Cushman (2)
