I actually thought about buying me an 883 to get back in the swing of riding. Then turning it over to him and buying my Fat Bob that I want.

He's rode dirt bikes some, but not a lot. It wouldn't take him long to get the basics down.

He can't get his motorcycle license here til he's 18 anyway, so it's still gonna be a while.

It wouldn't take long to get bored with an 883 if you have been riding a while. I was surprised how fast it came back.

I haven't been on a bike in years. I'm gonna take a safety class when I do get one, just for a refresher.

I started riding pretty young. I was 14 when I had the Bonneville.

If I got a 1200 Sportster, it'd probably suit me for a long time to come. So I'm kinda up in the air.

I got my first one when I was 19 years old. Several bikes later, my first wife made me stop riding because she didn't want to be a widow.

Now, my kids are grown and I don't have her to gripe at me all the time.

My wife now just tells me that if I figure out how to get one and afford it, that she don't care. Just dont' expect her to get on it.

My wife like to ride with me. But it took time. One of her sisters was killed in a bike accident and another had to learn how to walk and talk again.

Time for me to hit the hay! Have a great night!
