I've been riding since 1966, starting out on a string of two stroke Yamahas and a Kawasaki H-1 triple. Four bikes in twelve years or so. Then things slowed down a little. In 1980 I got a CB750F which I rode for five years. In 1985 when Honda was clearing out their warehouses I got a very good deal on an '82 CB900F, I could have gotten a white CBX with faring and saddle bags for $200 more but that's another story. In 2000 I traded for an ST-1100 so my wife and I could tour and enjoy motorcycling together. My wife hasn't ridden with me for a few years now so two weeks ago I went and picked up my CB1100 DLX. Two bikes in thirty years, not counting the smaller ones that have come and gone in between, doesn't seem too transitory. I'll be eighty two in fifteen years so maybe this is it, or maybe I'll become a frequent buyer again but right now the CB1100 is pushing all the right buttons, it may be another long term relationship.
