When I got married, she said she would make all the small decisions and I would make all the large ones. So far there hasn't been one decision for me to make.
All my toys were bought before the marriage.

[XSLeo]

I have the sicknes, maybe not as bad as some.
03 Harley FXDX
75 XS650B on going project.
81 XS650SH with a fairing and trunk, needs a rotor to charge.
82 XS650SJ parts bike
82 Seca 650 Turbo parts bike
81 Honda CM400E
The Harley, the 75 and 81 xs's and the Honda are road legal. The 81 got rode till the rotor quit.
Plans for the 82 include a Mike's 750 kit and a rephase. Keep it light and fast. If it don't make it go, stop or handle it ain't going on.

I would say I still have the disease, but I've definitely tamed it a little compared to a couple of years ago. I have 6 bikes at the moment and haven't bought any in a while. I've had 9 or 10 at one time. I'm really trying to get down to 4 but it's so hard. I always seem to have about 3 vehicles and I just got a boat last summer! Sold the scooter, 4-wheeler, and snowmobile all with-in the last couple of years. I like toys with engines!

 

[Malloy]

I try to start and complete projects. Fortunately, these are all cheap rides...so its feasible

71 XS - pretty much done
78 XS (will be done soon)
85 Supra (highly modded)
84 Lowrider (Shovel/belt) - Coming soon!

I used to buy a bike right, ride it for a season and sell it. Same with cars. Had some fun doing that - but Im really digging the old/cheap bikes. Ive really fallen for the XS though.

CB1100F Awesome bike and now a real collector piece. Had one of the GT550's too (not as nice as yours) I went to see "The three amigos" one night on the GT with a friend (he rode his CB900F) and when we came out of the theatre there was 2" of fresh snow on the ground I was about 45min from home and no sidecar!

Gawd, there are so many levels of disease severity out there! Based on the semi-reliable data furnished so far, I think durgam k and pyroman have clearly been demonstrated to have the mutant form of the disease, aquiscyclus hopelesonia. In these difficult cases, total financial, sexual and mental euthanasia have long been shown to be the only way of control, especially if the last two conventional therapies, divorce induced ass reaming and rectal financial amputation have been recognized as therapy failures.
