I so totally wish I could have kept my Night Train when I got my SG, but couldn't afford the new bike without trading the old. *sigh*
So my back-up bike would be my wife's Fat Boy.
(thank god she's said she'll never put anything pink or "girly" on it)

Anytime I forget what CRAMPS feel like . . . I can ride this.
Actually my son-in-law owns this. I ride it from time to time which just makes my bike feel that much better. Remember, it's not all about power.

My backup bike is my 1975 Kawasaki Z1-B. I bought it new and it's taken me everywhere, almost 85K on it. It still runs pretty strong but it's smoking a bit. Someday I'll do a full restoration on it.

My wife's blacked out denim Nightster. Runs fast and hard. She rides that thing like she stole it.

Incredible bang for the buck, and they are unique
The RK
is my #2 bike. 1st bike is a ZRX1100.
Hiya Neggy!
