I don't know...its got stuff.  Sorta wish I had extra $$ around....and more garage space.  Anyway-just incase someone is looking.  I'm only dreaming right now until I can sell a house or two.

another Africa Twin...but a vintage import from Ebay this time.  I really need to stop looking at this stuff. but I'm going to blame the color scheme.

I'd be a bit nervous taking it out on the trail.  Suppose it isn't all that easy to get replacement stuff.

I keep seeing an import running around Watertown.   I hope I get a chance to talk to the owner

yeah....can't help myself--a 750 Africa Twin Japanese import.

and a more local Transalp too

or this one...

Not sure that either would be all that beneficial over the current XL I have now. (seeing all the dirt use it got this year *says rolling eyes*)  I can see the benefit for some long distance adventure stuff with the v-twin over the thumper.

I read today that the mathematical formula for the correct number of motorcycles to own is N+1 where N=the current number you own now. haha

That formula works for firearms too.
