For you guys that have older 1500's, I'm just wondering how many of you do longer rides. I have relegated mine to be my local traveler. I don't have a solid reason for this other then she's an older bike with 60,000 miles and I worry she won't make it. Aside from my POG failure and a couple minor issues here and there, she has been a fantastic bike. Wouldn't have kept her for 15 years if she wasn't a good bike.
I don't travel a lot by bike anyway and I do have the Concours which I use for that, but I'm contemplating selling the Connie because I don't ride it as much as I should. I use the Vulcan as my DD. If I sold the Connie I'd have to use the Vulcan for my longer rides then since I'd be down to one. Just wondering how you guys with the older 1500 use yours and if you're willing to hit the road for several hundred miles at a time on them. Appreciate the feedback.
