I had to finally sell my KZ 1000 about ten years ago. Every once in a while a Goldwing catches my eye, but if I got it I'd have to sell it to finance my divorce. She will not ride and I'm finally ready to admit it isn't as fun as it used to be. I see too many crap drivers here in the hill country.
Just like mine except I had wire spokes, chrome fender and a standard header.
