I have never bought the same bike twice.
That pretty blue on the EX's that never release in the US would be my first choice. That color with the sparkle like the red has is just mesmerizing. I also really like Alprider's yellow, which is odd because generally I don't care for yellow.
... but weirdly, alprider makes us almost all appreciate the yellow.
It's the dreary, pedestrian backdrops to his pictures I suspect. They lack the grandeur and colorful splendor normally associated with places such as downtown Detroit. Don't even get me started on his photographic compositional skills. Sheesh.
The aforementioned post contains only sarcasm, in case it needs to be said.

... probably Whoops. You raise some good points about alprider's photographic skills and his environment.
Detroit? Heck no, go all the way, Dearborn.

I found another, middle 90's, but the exhaust was 4 into 1, with a really loud aftermarket pipe. I re-wrapped it four times, and it was still too frickin' loud and I sold it.
Seems to a lot of Forum folks who really liked their mid-90s Honda Nighthawks.

You got that right, GO, and for good reason. Great looking, simple, fun to ride, started and put a grin on my face every time.

Recently picked up a ‘14 Deluxe, 3081 miles. Had one about five years ago but didn’t bond with it, thinking I’m ready this time and will keep this one awhile. Did an 800 mile trip to the mountains last week, ordered an MRA screen and plan to hit the VJMC rally in Carrollton, Ky in a couple weeks.
Tried uploading an image, can’t figure it out, looks like I did it five years ago but not now.
Other bikes I’ve bought twice:
Honda Nighthawk S
Honda CX650 Turbo
Honda GB500
Yamaha XT350
Yamaha RZ350…. Three times.
Kawasaki W650

Congratulations! Looking forward to those pictures.

Had a '94 Honda CB750, and loved it! An old lady came into my lane at a light and pushed me over. No injuries, but insurances totaled the bike. Went and found another one, but didn't like that one as well. Sold it.
