met this younger guy as he was pulling up to a convenience store.

he was on an '02, v-star1100.

he said a "buddy, didn't like the way it handled, ".and just GAVE it to him!

i offered him 4 times what he paid for it, and he turned me down!

can you imagine a guy turning down a 400% profit???

I have possession of an 86 Venture, ride it near every day. It belongs to an old friend of my father and mine, he doesn't want the bike, and he doesn't want to sell it. He even keeps the insurance and tags current on it "just in case he takes a notion to ride". Over the last 7 years or so I have had it for extended periods of time, and have thusly put several miles on it. Of the 27k thats on it, 22 k are mine! Heading off to Salt Lake City on it this coming Sunday, be back on Friday, in case he wants to ride Saturday.
