My credo
If you can't go through it or around it, then go over it.
I may be done with building trucks and cars. Having to put my V65 Magna back together from scratch has re-inighted my passion for motorcycles. I have a daily driver quality bike that get 32mpg with me cruising at 80-90 mph with pulls into the 100mph range (125 on my way to work this morning), not bad for a 34 year old bike I have less that $700 in.

I still need to change the fork seals and replace the warped rotor on the front and get the carbs cleaned/jetted
 
Who cares what you are building as long as you are having fun doing it?

You do you man.
 
What he said. Take lots of pictures while you do it!
 
Well...

I like bikes way more than cars and trucks. I have 5 bikes. I would only ride bikes except I have to haul kids. And I have to do things like carry 14 62# boxes of tile. Or haul a well accumulator or some drywall or a water heater. Or recover a car. I even have a bike with snow tires that I ride in the winter.

So I ride when I can and drive when I have to. I ride 10,000 and drive 10,000 every year.

I feel ya. My V65 is my daily driver. But I can’t find snow tires or even adventure tires that I can stud that will fit it
 
i could waste half the day everyday riding around the woods on a bike...
 
Heh heh when I was working nights at the shipyard there was an old timer who rode a 450 Honda yr round , all weather. 40 miles each way:D

I used to waste whole days riding around the two norther counties here. I have degeneration in my spine now and can't do it anymore. Enjoy it while you can.


I understand getting tired of doing the same thing all the time. If I was in better shape I wouldn't mind rebuilding a '70's-'80's bike. Have fun. Trucks will always be around if you want to come back to them.
