Bikeless and on the hunt
Sale of the V-Strom went well yesterday. Picked up the buyer, a nice guy from Wichita, at the airport and had a nice chat on the way to my house. Handled paperwork and payment, and he was on his way home. This modern Internet thing is pretty amazing. In the last 2 years, I’ve bought 3 vehicles and sold 2 via long-distance Internet activities. Makes for a very small world.
So now the hunt for the next bike is on. I’m a classic guy, there’s just no way around it, so that’s where I’m heading these days. Here’s my current short list, after a day spent bothering salesmen in all of the motorcycle shops in Salt Lake. These are in my current order, but that’s subject to change, of course.
- 2007 Triumph Bonneville — Goodwood Green
- 1970s BMW R75/5 or R75/6 — Black
- 2007 Kawasaki Vulcan 900 Classic — Carribean Blue
