Really cool bike! If I "needed" another bike, I'd have one of those. Good that he grabbed one; I understand they have been discontinued.

Is that it Ferret? Thought it would be many more.
RE: Family first - the Ferret - 08-22-2021
Well my mom and dad who both rode died (their last bikes were a Moto Guzzi 125 Stornelo and a Yamaha U7E). My older brother who rode died (Honda Goldwing and Harley Davidson Sportster). My older sister (80) quit riding (Honda CB 160). My wife (69) quit riding (Yamaha 400 Majesty). My son's wife quit riding (Kawasaki Ninja 300) to raise their kids. Her mom (64) quit riding (Suzuki 650 Burgman), and her one cousin quit riding (Suzuki DRZ 400).
I think at this time we have 11 members of the family that ride, and this will be the 13th year for the annual family Men's Fall Trip where about half of us take an out of state trip together on motorcycles.

Incredibly sharp memory for models of motorcycles and when they were used.

That is remarkable ferret having a family of riders, and archers too I'll bet. My younger brother and I are the first and only riders in our family. My brother started racing motocross at 14 and I was his race bike toter in a Chevy P/U and mechanic. My late father told us we were crazy to be riding those "death" machines and our 92 years young mother still worries if we come to visit on our bikes.

If you are born into this family you are expected to love bows and bikes lol.
I tried to quit riding once, after an accident in 1969 when I t Boned a left hand turner on my 305 Scrambler. I was 19. It was my mom that convinced me to get back on. She told me I would regret it if I gave up riding since I loved it so much. Ridden about every day since lol
