Default If you bought a second bike?

I have and have had quiet a few bike's. My 08 street glide is my first harley. I have had it about 10 months. I am thinking about a second harley. My wife says it will be like now and in the past I will only ride the bike I like the best. Do you have more then one harley? What models? Do ride one more then the other? The funny thing is that the harley that always turns my head they don't make anymore man I love the look of a Deuce.

I'm sorry I can only afford 1 bike. If I had cash laying around I'd go for a rocker.

I'm currently considering a second bike. It will most likely be the BMW FS 800 GS dual sport.

P.S.- My dream bike is a restored knucklehead-era ('36-'47) police bike.

I have a 2008 FLHTC and a 2005 Deuce. Just sold a 2006 Sporty, ohly had 560 miles I never rode it. Since I bought the EC I never use the Deuce any more. The deuce is all chromed out and custom painted. Can't make up my mind if I want to sell it or not. I have a lot of money in it and I know I will never get it back. It does win me plenty of trophies in shows, but that gets old too.
