Wink back up not really- just a second ride

I really like to do lot's of different kinds of riding and the KLR650 is a go anywhere anytime bike, and $5k you can't buy a better DP. . . JMHO

Had one of these too, back in the day. . . TR6C 1961 now that was a real Dual Purpose.

Right now it has to be the only other bike parked in the garage - 2005 Sporty, XL1200 C. It may soon be a 2006 FXST.

I bought one of each family so I could cover any riding needs.



Worked for me but my wife grumbles about it every now and then.

She is my first Harley and will be the #1 ride but on certain days I would like something a little different. My previous bikes were mostly sport touring bikes having owned a Honda ST1100, FJR 1300 and multiple BMWs.

I know there are many Forum members with 4+ bikes but what is your favorite #2 ride?

Great thread Hondo!

Really interesting to see the different bikes we don't usually talk about, but ride on the side. Why does it sound like an affair? lol
