The story behind my Connie... My wife took me to the dealership last week and told me to get the bike I had been looking at for my Christmas and birthday present. We ride almost every weekend, year round. Either off road or 1up and sometimes 2up on road. She enjoys riding as much as I do!

Here she is tearing it up on the dragon.

2016 Aprilia Tuono V4 1100RR

Talk about a completely different bike. All that wind, all that power, all that handling and by God the sound coming out of that stock exhaust is blissful. (The stock exhaust sounds like a damned slip-on with a catalytic about the size of a nickel in there.)

It's not me, but here's a listen.

I also have a 1984 Honda VF700S Sabre with the factory sport tour package. My uncle gave me this bike after he abandoned it for dead outside for 6+ years. I got it Sep. 2017 and got it running 1 1/2 months later. Several months later I found the factory fairing on CL. I rode it on a 4 day trip this last summer and have put 4500 miles on it so far.

Some great bikes here!

I'm at a crossroads. My K16 will be sold soon, as my C14 has replaced it.

Very tempted to buy a second "different" bike - OR- buy a toy car. Tough call.

  Bike tire bigger  now.   But the strange part rear bike tire has 11,600 miles, I would say at least 1/2 of it left.

I thought I was going to buy a convertible, but the Indian has kept me riding.
