Well I can appreciate your taste in bikes. I put over 100K on my old WG and I still miss it. At 71 I intend to ride as long as my old body will let me. My wife is 67 and she is still up for long trips. She did a 750 mi. day with me 2 years ago headed for Sturgis. I bought her a heated seat for the Road Glide a couple months ago so she is happy as a clam. I still love Dyna's and have a 09 that I love tinkering with. For me Harleys have been such a big part of my life that I feel blessed to have enjoyed the open roads and great people I have met along the way. No regrets from this geezer!
Its a great feeling when you finally figure out that life aint about what others think. Do what you like and to hell with what anyone else thinks about it.
I was thinking similar. Im restoring a car and I quit keeping track of what it cost or has cost the end result is it will be nice and fun. Same appplies to the bikes.
Oh, come on now. Not allowing popular opinion to dictate your motorcycling habits is the SAME EXACT THING as being a drug lord with all of its associated mayhem and murder..

So you don't see the humor in applying the quote I used in an imaginative context?
Of course it's the EXACT same thing if your motorcycling habits involve being a drug load.
I too am 61. And yes this mortal shell is much closer to the grave than the cradle.
Fact is, other than minor aches n pains, and several pounds heavier, I don't feel much different than 31, or even 21 ( in my mind). Wiser, a little more cautious perhaps.
The wife and I have a 2019 Tri Glide for 2 up travel.
My personal ride is a 1995 Dyna Convertible.
It's a stock engine except for pipes n carb tune.
I ditched the buck horns for for something more comfortable, lowered the rear with Progressive shocks about 1 1/2", LePera Bare Bones solo seat . Just things to help the scooter fit me physically.
Yea, it's not something I can ride 500 miles a day. But 150 ain't out of the question.
Not a rough ride,but not a road sofa like the Tri Glide .
Never much cared for what others thought about what I ride.
Started out on a 1981 Yamadawg 650 Special.
Wish I still had it.
I hope I still have at least a few more good years for two wheeled adventures.
You keep doing you. And I'll keep doing me.
I'll wave when we pass one another.🤜🤛👍
