A "worksmith"?

Tell my bosses that! I'm guessing they would beg to differ.

Wait, VLJ isn’t a professional test rider/reviewer?

I guess that makes Rboe a word stylist.

This is reviving an old thread here, but I came across it and it is a thread worth reviving. What a great discussion about bikes, guitars and realizations we arrive at as we get older. In my opinion, it is worth a full read. I agree with what was said about the CB1100. I just have had my 2017 EX a couple of months, but I am really liking that bike a lot and I plan to keep it a long time. I have owned and sold dozens of bikes over my 60 years, but I have also kept some a long time. This month, I will have had my Road King 20 years, and I have had my Multistrada 11 years. The EX seems destined to be another keeper. Thanks to the earlier posters for a great thread.
