I paid 50 bucks for it and got a bunch of spare parts for it as well. I fixed some wiring issues and bought a helmet and then rode it a little on weekends over a summer. Then I swapped it for a Colt Python. I don't miss the bike, but I wish I still had the Python. Don't be the darkness. America will perish while those who should be standing guard are satisfying their lusts.

I stopped by my dealer last month and they didn't know the availability of the 2023 models either. The last thing I need is Another T Dub, I've still got my 2019 Another gear would be nice.

Then one day a lady decided to run a red light and hit me from behind. Three plates and 13 screws later my right shoulder still hurts every day as well as decreased mobility. I had to make a choice and I just can’t risk it anymore. You can be the best rider in the world but you can’t control how others drive. Stay safe when you ride. I’ll stick with a fast car from here on out. Yes, I miss it. My biggest fear is when I die my wife will sell my guns for what I told her they cost.

More comfortable for an old geezer. 😀 You should check out the Moto Guzzi V85TT. All reports I've heard have been positive and it's proving to be a mile burner on the tarmac and completely capable on the dirt roads. Leave the gun, take the canolis.

weaselsRus Campfire Tracker Joined: Sep 2007 Posts: 3,278 NE Nevada	Originally Posted by JLimbo The only one left is a glorified minibike. Won't ever own a road bike again as I don't feel safe on the road here in my F-250 with the way the idiots drive. Multiple accidents on any given week on the 10 mile stretch from town to my house. Windfall & JJHACK on here have one, I have a 84 Mototractor and Safariman had one in the classifieds, it was yellow, maybe an accessory to the Avalanche? Last edited by weaselsRus; 04/06/23.
