started on my wifes honda rebel 250 for a week or so until we got her second bike.
rode her suzuki savage 650 for the summer until she was comfortable enough to move up.
got a honda nighthawk 750 of my own.
got rid of that and got my own suzuki savage 650.
rode that until i got my harley sportster 883r.
sold the wifes savage and she got a harley sportster.
got a buell blast as a shared 3rd bike for me and the wife.
got rid of that for a kawassaki ER6-n shared, but officially became her 2nd bike when i got my 2nd bike.
added the honda CB1100 as my second bike.

Mick,

I bought my last Road King brand new in 1998, it's now 18 years old, runs and looks brand new. It's such a great bike. The first fuel injected HD, it can sit for a year with the battery on a Tender and it starts instantly and runs flawlessly. Smooth as glass on the highway (unlike my Sportster) and it will cruise all day at 85 MPH carrying two people and a lot of gear with me sitting in still air behind the short windshield. Amazing bike.

Chip
