I miss my 2004 GSXR-750 sometimes. It was so much fun on the race track.

For a second bike, I think I would get a bar hopper. Sort of a rat rod, with a shovelhead, obscenely tall sissy bar, and wrapped exhaust.

Default Second bike(s)

I have found that I am not happy with just a touring bike or just a bar hopper, I've tried.
So what I have done is keep at it until I have a collection of bikes varied enough to keep me interested and having fun.

1. 2017 Road Glide Custom
2. 2002 Springer Softail, old school style
3. 1999 Heritage Springer, currently torn down and rebuilding Vicla style
4. 2004 Heritage Softail Classic, mostly stock cruiser
5. 2001 BMW K1200LT, for those trips I don't want to take the Harley (bad weather, bad roads, etc.)

Traded in a V-rod muscle for the Glide, I went back and forth on whether or not to keep it but I don't ride enough for 2 bikes. That being said if I decide to add to the stable it'll be another V-rod.

i'd have my 2012 Triumph Thunderbird back. its a blast to ride and will smoke any 103 thats not beyond stage 1. plus it feels like riding with air condition compared to my 15 SGS.
