Did you find a bike that you once owned?
I have several restored bikes along with a 2006 Goldwing with a sidecar. My wife has a 2019 Suzuki DR 650 for on and off road.

Those are nice bikes. I've owned scads of bikes over the years but my old '81 GPz550 is the one bike I regret selling.

I sold it and moved on in life. The little girl has grown, married and gone. The kz owner is now phasing out of motorcycles and I wanted to phase back in. Bike does not purr the way she used to but even after all these years looks nearly the same. I do not.

I am restoring that very same model Bike. Same color too. It was actually my daily rider about 10 years ago. I will try to post pics from the shop later!
