Having a well handling, quick stopping, and light sport bike helps one regain the edge. I have a full set of luggage and am comfortable riding it long distances. I kind of wish the seat wasn't made of concrete though....... I still like vintage bikes, but I'm tired of working on stuff. Owning the old stuff was profitable, always made money when I sold one. I'm to the point where all I want is to turn the key and ride without a bunch of prep work or the worry of actually making it to my destination or not.

And ain't it nice not having to try to synch. twin Amal carbs? Good for about 100 miles if you do. I do wish the Ninja had kick start though.
