These are my buddy's Suzies in mint condition, ridden daily, and I think the blue one was for sale.
Will see him next month.

I could recognize those lines in my sleep. Loved that bike. Had a bar-mounted fairing on it and had a bad death wobble at about warp-one, one night. Managed to get it slowed down using only the rear brake gently and got rid of that fairing. Put a Honda fairing like the one on the touring CBX. My buddy welded up a bracket coming straight off the steering head. He was an old Navy vet and that bracket could have held a battle-ship. My friends called it a "Honda-uki" after that.

After all, it would be a third bike to accompany the CB and the Triumph (assuming I sell the 300). But, my life is too busy to fiddle... easy maintenance and riding would be my requirements.
Going far out on a limb, there are these. You'd be maybe the first on your "block" if they come to California:

I dunno, GO, that first one looks quite a bit like what I have now.
Paging down, they mention the new BSA. I'd need to see a dealer in my area before I'd be comfortable. I have a RE dealer nearby.
But, a few things are in play here... Mrs. Gone's suspicions are elevated at the possibility of me wanting to trade her "Little Blue" for something else. She's been telling me over the past few days how much she likes it (even though she's never ridden). She just thinks it's "cuter than your other bikes" and likes seeing it in the garage.

the cheapest CB1100 on the market, up to 80,000 miles if properly maintained,
and give her a good place for deserved retirement in my yard

Sounds like she's a gawker Gone.
You can gawk together in the garage over some stubby bottled beer.
Life can be truly good!

I kinda want the Honda trail, but think I’m too fat for 125cc.
@ 250lbs I want 250cc minimum and the ability to hit 60-65.
Just love the Honda trail style

They (many, that is) say the smaller bikes are the most fun.

I really like Africa-Twin. Would be my first choice when buying a new bike.
Complitly different.
