It's not that we don't care...we all know what you're going through. Trust me, your excitement to ride this bike does not diminish over time...it only grows. Even after more than 2 years I sometimes often get off the bike and feel compelled to sing its praises. I've just learned to contain myself...most of the time.

Glad you're enjoying it. You made a good choice.

We care! I'm thinking about starting to do some motorcycle photography. I've learned the benefit of riding all the time with my side panniers, so naturally I have room to carry some stuff. My DSLR will be one of them!

I try to keep my DSLR in the tank bag for quick access. Never know when a shot will present itself.

And to stay on topic.. I know exactly how you feel. Jost came if from a ride the other day and said to the wife "Man I love riding that thing!".
And yes, the more you ride it the more you want to. It's an addiction.

I know the sentiments. I almost sunk into depression when my bike was at the dealer for the 26k checkup. I was so happy to see it back that I was it was hard for me to contain my tears of happiness... My wife was so wonderful, when she used her furlough time, to go to get it.

Yes to all of the above! I care, and I love my Super Ten too! This bike has a rare combination of charisma and reliability. ::003::

It is more fun than Swedish triplets! ::013::

I know the feeling. Now that the riding season started I'm excited like a little kid in a toy store. Can't wait to see her dirty again.

2 years ago, I couldn't have predicted it.
1 year ago I was starting to get my head around it.
Today I simply accept it.

No bike, not one, of the MANY I have currently, or over the last 45 years, has come anywhere close to being the Juggernaut for my riding attention\pleasure, that this bike is. No bike.

For more than 800 days in a row, I am anticipating getting on it within the next few hours-minutes. I'm sitting at my desk with it parked outside my window.

So yea, I care and I know what you mean. Tenere-smitten. Exclusive malady. :)

Confession time with the wife.........."honey Ive been cheating on you,,,,sneakn out spending time and going places behind your back......"
Yes baby....its me and "Whitey".......carrying on, having a ball on the forest roads......" I guess it was a dead give away when I kept telling her I was going out for cigarettes and I dont even smoke..... She was heart broken but said she would stay with me if I went to counseling........I said it was a good idea....one more place to ride the bike to.....
