Given that it only took about 3 seconds for it to become clear that I'd be sleeping on the couch for even suggesting that I get a new bike last week it's astounding on a level I couldn't have imagined that my wife gave me the green light last night. My head is still spinning but that didn't stop me from taking full advantage and spending the day shopping.
So...drum roll please...I'm the proud owner of a new Z900RS...brown & orange.
You won't be getting rid of me that easily though as my beloved Vulcan S will be passed along to my son so will still be in my garage and as the lead motorcycle guy of the house I'll be helping him look after it so will still be in here on a regular basis.
Now to prepare for a Saturday pickup and the long ride home as I was able to strike a good deal by driving out to what passes for the middle of nowhere here and buying from a dealer starved for sales. An old but effective tactic.
