Final communication made. Agreed terms. Gets sent out today.

Getting it ready for spring, John.

Btw. It’s sat for 6 months with a half tank of non-treated cheap
gas. I
dropped a fresh battery in it and it fired right off. No complaints
there.Â*Â* I don’t know about the nasty old gold wing being that
easy...yet


Gosh, I ordered a basket yesterday for my instant pot cooker.
From amazon.

How does it handle in the rain? Is it better than your Ducati?

...

🙄😆😂🤣



I don’t drive motorcycles in the rain.


I don't "drive" motorcycles period.Â* I "ride" them.



Thought you sold yours...



I did.Â* But I still occasionally ride my brother's bike.

I've had motorcycles going back to the early 70's.Â* Lost count of
exactly how many but I can think of at least seven of them I've owned
over the years.

In all those years I have never heard anyone who rides a bike refer to
it as "driving" them.Â* Makes me very suspicious that your claim to
owning one is nothing but a figment of your imagination.



Both terms are used, though ride is more common. When I started riding
on my used Honda in the early 1960s, out in Kansas, I participated in
some "rides" to Topeka, Wichita, Columbia, et cetera, but the guys would
says "we are going to drive our bikes this weekend to Topeka...you wanna
go with?" I wouldn't sweat it.



Sorry. I just can't begin to imagine guys with bikes saying, "we are
going to drive our bikes this weekend to Topeka ..."

"ride" our bikes ? Yup. "drive" our bikes ? Never. Kansas must have
attracted some strange people.
