My first bike which I bought about 8 years ago is an 06 S40. I still have it but now I have a second bike which I bout last year, a 97 Honda Shadow Spirit 1100. Probably hold on to both bikes for a good while. The addition of an off road capable bike would be nice. We'll see what the future brings.

Rotary Water Buffalo!!
That bike looks like it would be a monster to drive.

Yea Springman , a dual sport bike would be a nice complement to an able cruiser. The Yamaha XT250 and the Himalayan both cost about the same when new.

I'm guessing it will be a while before I am up to buying another bike. And I really need to do some research to see what would be good. I like the older Hondas the XL and SL in the 175 to 350cc range just on looks. Don't really know if they are good bikes. The Himalayan is very interesting but so is the Versys 300. Maybe I should by a lottery ticket!!

I agree 3 is nice, a couple weeks ago on a beautiful warm afternoon I found myself at the shop with some unexpected free time and actually had all 3 out for short rides on that one day.
