Wondering how many of you happen to have siblings in the garage, and what the "alt-ride" to your Ténéré is.
I've shared this before here; I picked up an old BMW Airhead last summer, which I love. It's soooo different from the Ténéré, not just because it's vintage, but because it's a low, super-easy to maneuver, purpose-built road bike. First and only true road bike I've ever owned OR ridden.
About the only quibble I have with it is the chronic carburetor dribble on my shoes, boots, and garage floor. It's as if it has a prostate problem all its own. But I have wondered: how awesome would it be to have a modern variant, like a Guzzi V7 or a Bonnie or even that Honda CB1100...
Any of you all have a sibling roadie? What's your other love?
(BTW both bikes have a little sister—a trusty 10 year old Vespa)
