Hmm ... just stumbled on this link and started thinking that I might want to continue it. As a little update (for the NSA) I now own three motorcycles, a Yamaha 600 and Yamaha 800 in addition to my Kawasaki Concours. I love the Concours and if I was 10 years younger I would keep it for 10 years but it is a heavy (powerful) bike and at slow speeds a handful. Guess I could go to the gym everyday and workout so I could handle it but ... I have other things to do. My Yamaha 800 is the bike I ride the most as it is much lighter and easier to handle. I just returned from a 155 mile ride to find 9 geocaches, another hobby of mine. I hope to give the 600 to an old, old friend of mine in Wisconsin next summer as he rides a 1800 Yamaha cruiser and needs a small lightweight toy. Plus I need the room in the garage as I have been looking for a new, blue 2013 FZ1. :-)
More to follow? Who knows as Fukushima could blow at any time and there are always those coronal mass ejections to worry about. How did I live for so long in a Mayberry RFD world? :-)
