It all started back in 82 with my first bike an 81 Kawasaki 650CSR. It wasn't long before I got rid of it and bought an 82 Honda CB750 Custom, which I absolutely loved. Once I got out of the Air Force in 88, my new civilian job kept me on the road and too busy for the bike. So sadly I sold it in 1990, man what an idiot! I wish I still had that bike, mostly for sentimental reasons now.
Roll ahead a few years and now over 40 with most everything paid for I decided it was time to get back out and start riding again. No it isn't the old mid life crisis thing. I just have both the time and money finally!! Recently I purchased a 2006 Honda Vtx 1300R from a bud of mine who was looking to repeat the same thing I did all those years ago. The bike didn't fit his lifestyle any longer, yeah you know the story. Anyway, I decided to jump on the deal and buy his VTX1300R, which had almost 2k in extras on it, for a cool 6k.
Well of course once I got my hands on the bike, I suffered a small case of upgrade fever. So while I have not spent as much as my bud, I have spent enough to dress her up a bit more. Of course the work continues and eventually I will stop. I like my chrome, but too much is well.... too much.
Thanks to GMan for parting with his ride.....
