Title: Multiple bikes
Post by: Greg on April 05, 2017, 07:44:19 AM

I don't know how folks with multiple bikes of different classes do it. After just 8 months with 2 bikes I'm facing a dilemma. While riding my sportbike I never have a feeling of "I wish I was on my sport-touring bike", yet while I enjoy my Sprint ST I do on occasion get a feeling of "I wish I was on my CBR".

It's a hormonal thing-you'll outgrow it. I find on my regular routes I'm going the same speed whether on my Futura ,SV, or EX250.

You won't really appreciate the ST Bike until you're 1500 miles out and you're hitting the Day 3 groove with 7 days and all the best sceanery/roads still ahead of you.  ;D

Greg - Here's a good read for you... :)   Trips like this are the reason I will always have an ST of some kind in the garage.
