Round here that bike won't keep up...and that's not good. Splurge and get a Triumph America or something like it...or get at Suz S-40 single banger 650...
If its only a 6 mile commute ...get a bicycle.... 8)

I agree retro for sure!!
Looks like my first too, but mine was a Honda 175 IIRC... I also had a Suzuki 150 twin!!! It was a 60's bike. Never got to ride it did not run wham I bought it. Rebuilt the engine and then clutch was bad. Changed than and it would only shift out of first to neutral. Sold it.
I'm like you swamp, 15 mi round trip commute but I'm all back roads. I want back into bikes and am looking at a light nimble enduro style bike for this.

When you sold your sporster I thought you said it was because a bud of yours was in a bad crash & you could not aford to miss that much work. Now you say it was due to the fuel cost.. ::) Interesting how your stories unfold.

Interesting that we are only allowed to have one reason for doing something. I'll check with you before posting things in the future.

there are so many bikes on the market i dont even know how a guy would make up his mind.id have to go with a 400cc dual sport or bigger if i got rid of the old electra glide.a lot of times when your riding, acceleration can get yu out of trouble, with my bigger frame,6' 230 lbs i find a 400cc or more has what it takes. let us know what yu get and im sure yu will enjoy riding again!

I have always liked the retro look of the 70's. In 1975 I purchased a used 1972 Suzuki GT750 right out of high school. I am surprised I survived those days. In my mid 50's now, I have the Harley Road king parked in the garage. I also picked up a 1976 GT750 that needed some TLC earlier this year. I am in the process of cleaning it up and getting it back on the road. Come this spring, I should have the new and the old bike to have some fun on.
