All stock vs modified

[rotor]

Recently got my 2014 STD, and it is great. I have been reading many post for ideas of modifications, both for ascetic performance enhancement. There are a lot of really cool options. But I have to wonder. Since the total amount of these bikes out there are relatively low in numbers. I am thinking that keeping the bike 100% stock will be in the best interest long term.

I have looked at all the restored cb's from the 70's that are out there for sale. Many of them have been painstakingly pieced back together, and command a pretty penny to play.

While I am loving my new ride, and plan to put some serious miles on it, I just can't help to think how many of these will be survivors in another 40 to 50 years. How many of them will be all original.

Personally, I hope to have great, great grandchild find this bike sitting in my barn, clean, covered and ready to go.

There is nothing to wonder about, you ~are~ the man.
The only two things I put on mine was the Honda rear carrier and engine guards, both a snap to remove. Defacing this machine, so easy on eyes, with all kinds of aftermarlet trinkets... (I better stop right here
