To me, I could care less about riding anything elce...I have allot of shoulder pain..{ roofing when younger}....If I'm going to ride in pane its going to be on a Harley or not at all..Just my 2 cents..:s
For me riding is about the ride. It's not about the bike (but sort of) and I would find something to ride, be it a Honda or whatever. Get in the wind. Probably a BMW.
