"I think" a lot of retired folks are new to riding & have a fantasy about riding off into the sunset on a MC & living the dream they've seen in some of the movies. Then the hard facts hit them in the face, everything from bugs, cages, excessive heat or cold, flat tire, a down pour for mile after mile & the list goes on. After a few times of that, they decide to cut their losses, hang it up & find a nice comfy place in front of the TV. There's thousands of perfect, low mileage MC's everywhere, many at steal prices.....Just my opinion.
I totally agree with you my friend..When I was in my 50's and 60's I rode the "dream" so to speak for a while..Then family issues, health issues, weather issues, and finally at close to 80, I just don't care much about riding anymore..Between careless drivers with their damn cell phones, traffic, etc.. I find I am spending more time in front of the TV and doing things around the house..Just bought a 2019 Ford Edge and would almost rather take a ride in it than my F6B....Still like to ride, but at this stage I have pretty much decided to forget getting a smaller bike and just hanging on to the one I have until I sell it or ???...BTW, I saw an article on the Internet a couple days ago that HD sales are in the tank and their stock is not doing well....Regards
