Bikes - show me yours

I'm technically too big for my 765RS but I'm used to it after 6yrs and love it. I rode the new Speed Triple 1200 RS and it's a perfect fit. But I'd never get rid of the 765 and I can't justify 2 nakeds.
 


Looks like this behemoth is going on Friday.

The missus said she'd ride with me if I got a Goldwing. Turned out she said that as she thought there was no way I'd buy a Goldwing.

I nearly traded it for a bargain GS last weekend, but alas it sold in the time I took for me to say "yes".



But the dealer has said they'll straight buy the 'wing for what they offered on trade in - which was acceptable - so it's going.

My ownership review is that the weight does not disappear as soon as you get moving, and the DSG is horrible. But the forward and backward crawler buttons definitely help as, with me on and a tank of fuel, it's 1/2 a ton. It's due the 32,000 miles service which is about £1200, and it'll need tyres soon, so knowing I've not got those to finance somewhat soften the blow of the financial loss.
