Cruise control ....

What, you fancy riding all year round? :laugh:

Ok, well maybe just snow tires for now. And throw in a heated cab.     I'm with Pete on the weight loss. I don't know if the cali has gained weight or I'm just getting,, oh never mind.

"My next bike will have......"  - - - a smaller or mid-sized motor....something in between "Moby Dick" (The Great White Whale, my '14 Victory Vision) and "The Yellow Horse (my '98 Centauro GT).

Yamaha XT500?
Suzuki Van-Van 200?
Vintage Triumph Trophy 500 / 650?
Yamaha TW200?
Honda XL250?
Yamaha SR400 / 500?
New Triumph Bonneville?
Ducati Scrambler?

Decisions....decisi ons.... So many cool bikes...so little money / time / garage space.....:rolleyes: :cool:

If you're making the assumption that I would ever part with the Griso, think again. You'll have to pry it from my cold, dead, hands.

A price low enough to ride it a couple years and then make my money back or possibly more. Oh, and 2 or 3 wheels.
