I bought an 04 Sportster new, rode it 32,000 some miles, loved it's look and all, and swore I would never sell it, but it's funny how high siding your ride can reshape your thinking. Then a couple of years after the accident, I thought, why didn't I rebuild that bike and do something interesting with it? Nearly a year with the CB and 7500 miles later...it's one of the few bikes that looks as good as my sportster did (along with the Triumph Scrambler and of late the new breeds Triumph has put out). So yes, the CB is a keeper. If I don't immediately think, wow, that's a cool LOOKING motorcycle, then I'm just not interested. At night I flip on the garage light just to look at it instead of flipping through mc magazines.
