It gets better too.

Naw, Mate I love this thing and its only getting better. Its a keeper. Thumbs UpBiker

It really is. Every time I start hankering for a new bike I take mine out for a short ride or long weekend, and I realize there's really nothing out there that's as versatile, fun to ride, and generally cool. I rode an FJR-ES at the Daytona track, and man, it was cool as hell. Handles like a sportbike, comfy as an Ultra Classic, every bell and whistle out there. By the end of the demo I was ready to buy one. Then I rode the CB home and I'm thinking...ok, the FJ would be great for the 3-hour superslab ride, but would I jump on it the way I do for a quick spin to the beach after work? Would I enjoy doing maintenance on it, like I do with the CB? Would hot women approach me in parking lots asking "is that your CB?" I think not...

Just curious spaceman, but as a matter of interest, and just so I can prepare myself for it, just how long was it after you got your cbee that these hot women started approaching you?

No particular reason for asking.

Just hasn't happened to me yet.

I mean, I'm sure it's only a matter of time.

No reason to think it wouldn't happen.

But, i'm not getting any...

...younger.
