Other bikes? - two are mine and my brothers have one each.
We have done many miles throughout the USA on these - Great touring machine
I have also had a Yoshi equipped '85 (Red) one.

I have two '84 CB750s, one '73 CB750 and a '74 CB360 (in boxes)

My touring ride now for NA is an '08 R1200GS.

I need to go somewhere I've not been but won't know until I get there!

Nice looking collection, is the Beemer as good as they say they are?

I love that bike - but it took some getting used to - the water cooled one are even better! They do anything and go anywhere!

I had a GSF1200S Bandit - flicked it a couple of years ago - It was an '06 last of the air cooled ones - that was a great go fast touring machine - should have hung on to it!

I've done the pre-run Baja 1000 on a KLX400 and the Continental Divide - 4000 kms in the dirt on a DR650. That was the end of my dirt riding. Now we do logging/forestry roads on the GSs. Good fun!

Cool, I want more legroom as my knees seem to be ageing faster than the rest of me.

Same problem I had, which was why sadly my 14 had to go after 9 years of ownership and I bought a new Triumph Explorer, much better sitting position, more long legged and upright, so better for my back, also the pillion is a better position and better for the wife's knees.

Sad day selling the 14, but as you get older, needs must (and did!)
Nothing to do.............all day to do it....I love retirement :lol:

Yep I rode a mates Explorer, liked it, no local Triumph dealer, they are only an hour away but that's a pain for services etc.
I like the Honda Crosstourer but have not ridden one.
