Now you got me trying to remember. Here are the motorcycles that I can
recall:

Honda 305 "Super Hawk"
Honda 350 - two .. one in Puerto Rico, one in MA.
Kawasaki 450
Harley Davidson Ultra Classic (2000 - white)
Harley Davidson Softails - two, one new in 2003, the other an older
version with the "evo" engine.
Harley Davidson Ultra Classic (2006 - maroon)

That's eight of them. Might be another ... oh, yeah there *was*.

I bought a custom built Harley that Cape Cod Harley Davidson built
especially for Sturgis but cancelled going.

Oh, ... one more ... a fully restored 1974 Norton 850 Commando.

That's 10.

So, how often do you "drive" your Ducati ?

Not as many here.
I have had a
250 Benelli dirt bike, the one that tried to kill me ;-)
350 RD Yamaha, Didn't keep it long, Maybe the most dangerous bike ever
350 Honda Sent it down the road pretty quickly too when I found the FX
72 Superglide (my favorite)
72 XLCH (fast but not as good a ride as a Superglide)
74 XLH (last Harley in Md)
71 FLH (the one I had down here)



My squirreliest bike was as a teen I got hold of a Moped Frame with a
Triumph Cub motor. And broken kick starter. Had to bump start. Got
away from me one bump start in front of the house. In front of MOM. Not
the best thing to do. I stepped off and let the bike crash without me. I
still have the California motorcycle DL endorsement. But at 75 years old
today, I think is not a good thing to ride.
