I ride probably the most "vanilla" bike listed so far - a '98 Suzuki GS500E. I bought it six years ago after taking the MSF course, figuring I'd thrash it for a year and then upgrade. Then came the house and the wife
. Once I got the expenses under control I started thinking about a new bike again......until my daughter was born. Paying daycare expenses took the wind out of my sails trying to figure out how much bike I could afford. *Sigh* Oh well, at least the Suzuki's running nicely again on a fresh carb rebuild. Besides, I'm just happy to be on two wheels and the insurance is cheap!
