BSing with the head mechanic and service writer when a fellow dropped off the keys to his Goldwing for some service (not sure what) and left. As I was standing there, they opened the door and a real pretty Wing revealed itself. Kind of maroon. Plain, no accessories I could see. Clean as a pin.
What year is that? I asked. 2010 came the reply.
Wow it's clean, said I, how many miles on it?
8,623 came the answer.
8 thousand? 8,000 miles ?.... in 8 years? That's less than 1,000 miles a year. How can that be?
Unbelievable. Heck, the tires were probably original.
I walked out and climbed on my unbelievably filty 4 year old CB 1100 with 43,000 miles on it and went for a ride.
Ferret, make a U-turn, trade one in and get the Wing!!!..I know you love it

Lash has marron as well...it's gonna be a pair

Time for some change
