Mind you I am also thinking of trading it in on a new honda also. brand new honda modle comming out this month and it is bad ass

Yeah I love this bike!

Only thing is I would look ridiculous riding it. LOL. Not quite a style I can pull off.

mmmm that honda made me drool a little.

Pretty neat how now you can buy ready made choppers. Takes some of the fun out of it though.

I've decided to bobber the bike. Keep the original frame and all the fun stuff...take it back about 30 years to a 1950s look...

There's one serious problem with that Honda "chopper". It's a Honda. ;)

yup, or you can just call it a "thinking man's Harley" :mrgreen:

when I bought the bike in 04, I was looking to spend 10K or less. any harley I looked at that was about 10K the stores would ask me if I am prepared to spend another 5 to 8K over the next 5 years...

to buy the style I wanted in a Harley it would have been 32K, I only spend 10including some gear on this one, and it doesn't leave oil spots on my driveway:wink:

At least it is dependable unlike the domestics or English bikes... Bikes and their owners are such a diverse group. Living out in Bragg Creek is a blast to ride into the hamlet and get to see the bikes... they are already rolling into town with gravel on the roads and snow drifts in the ditches...

There's already quite a few cruising around downtown by the shop. Just today there was a group of 5 or 6 rad Triumphs that went roaring by... I love spring/summer specifically for the bikes and muscle cars
