I have a Ducati Monster (perfect to travel up/down the range road from my place to Cairns) and a Suzuki RE5 (rotary engined).
You ride a Harley when you give up riding!!! hahaha, a bit like Toyotas..........seriously, for cruising possibly OK, for the range FORGET IT - scrape the pegs on every corner.
You really have got the mid-life bug Brett, haven't you
YES. Definately a mid-life crisis. Something just happened in my brain apx 4 months ago after a operation and I just woke up needing new scenery/new everything.lol (I will keep the current wife cause she is 34, and I am 42 yrs)
Started doing lots of new things, just got to get unbored.lol
P.S - nice bikes Mike.
