Lol, you're somewhat right, I'm not looking at new bikes and never have been other than for fun. Even the wheels would be more of a stretch. For the most part all my mods have been for comfort or performance and less about aesthetics. But, to your point I am an absolute sucker for a project. I take care of my family to ensure were comfortable and happy but I have to admit that I also live by the mantra "no use being the richest man in the cemetery"!

I do agree with you though, I enjoy every ride and every day.
