I never liked crotch rockets.
I still have a 1979 honda 650 hurricane I picked up 4 years ago.
Haven't ridden it in almost 3 years, it is just too small. I really need to sell it

I had a 88 Honda 1000 Hurricane. It would flat out fly, but it's slow compared to the newer bikes.

Probably comparable in a straight line to the old V65

I'd love to have a Magna V65. I looked at a 98 model 750 Magna last week. Money is right, miles are right, but I'm kind of set on the Harley.

My youngest brother has a few buddies that ride crotch rockets.
It is unbelievable how fast they are

Most I ever got scared was on a GSXR 750. Closest I ever came to wrecking, and it's the bike that got me off the crotch rockets altogether.

Besides, I'm too old and fat now to ride them.

If you settle for something else you will probably regret it.
I had a bonieville 750 (first street bike, first accident) and a shovelhead (worse piece o crap ever).
However I will say all of the heritage classics I've road were very nice and my buddies fat bob (ugliest 3k paint job in creation)rides excellent

Only way I'll settle for less is if my finances say different. I'm gonna have a bike in the next year or so, and hopefully in the next couple months. But if it comes out to me buying a used $4k bike and paying cash for it, then so be it. At least I'll be back on two wheels again.
