Do still ride a motorcycle ??

[Peacekeeper6]

Pretty self-explanatory.

 

[Peacekeeper6]

Still love riding on 2 wheels.

Started off on sport bikes (Ninja 250, then Honda 600 F2), but now ride a Harley Sportster.

Nothing like Wind Therapy !!

 

[Chupaca]

Tough one....

With me probably the issue is age and cost. If younger perhaps would have both but not worth the cost of maintaing them nor the risk as my abilities on the two wheeler dimimished as time moves on. Just my thoughts....:thumbup:

I ride a 2012 Victory Ness Vision. The wife rides a 2019 Spyder RT (2011 Spyder RT before that). I just bought a 2015 F3S as my 2nd motorcycle. My Vision won't be going anywhere though. ;-)

 

[Grandpot]

I've been very lucky with my health. I turned 70 last week and still ride a Honda Valkyrie Interstate (heavy cruiser). I ride it one day and then the RT-S the next day.

 

[h0gr1der]

Pretty self-explanatory.

Should have included an option "Too crippled to ride 2 wheels any more, 3 wheels is my only option". If Honda would have made a touring reverse trike I may not be sitting a Spyder.

 

[PinkRosePetal]

Yep, I've got three of them. I ride them to suit the journey and my mood.
:yikes:

2015 spyder rs 2013 road king,

 

[pegasus1300]

In the same boat as h0gr1der too crippled up to ride 2 wheels but would sure like to. Still have an 87 Venture Royale and a 71 Montesa but they just sit.

A few months ago we had a 1990 Harley Electraglide Sport (precursor to the Road King), a 2004 GL1800 Goldwing with a Champion trike conversion, a 2007 Trike Shop (Now Roadsmith) Roadhawk, a 2013 Triumph Bonneville T100 and 2018 RTL. We are downsizing in hopes of going full time RV in the next few years, and currently just have the Bonneville and the Spyder. Love riding them both, it's like ice cream - Chocolate Chip and Chocolate Fudge are different, but equally enjoyable.

Yes happily :yes::doorag::riding::riding: 06 1700S Road star cruiser& 13 Spyder STL, average will rotate out 3 tanks of gas on the spyder will do ride 1 tank on the star, unless on a trip, all trips are now on spyder. Both are about even on miles:2thumbs: have been to more states on spyder:doorag: more to go.

 

[ARtraveler]

Heck yes! Motorcycles have been in my blood since 1966. Have had over thirty assorted 2 wheeler's, from 80cc to 2000cc, and everything in between.

When I started having hip issues (2012) I traded my last Vulcan 900 in on Linda's brand new 2011 Spyder. After the hip surgery, I bought another Vulcan 900 in 2017. Still riding that today. Try to get miles on both the Spyder and the Vulcan almost every day now. 73 years young, and going to keep on riding two wheels until I cannot safely hold it up. Wind therapy is good. :yes:

 

[Jeriatric]

Won't be long and I'll pass GO for the 73rd time. Still ride and maintain - Indian Chieftain, FJR 1300 & spyder.

 

[Lew L]

Yes the other woman is a V-Max

I've been very lucky with my health. I turned 70 last week and still ride a Honda Valkyrie Interstate (heavy cruiser). I ride it one day and then the RT-S the next day.

I had a 98 Tourer and it was a GREAT bike.Wifes vertigo led us to the RTS.

But on to the topic at hand:

Yes I often ride my poor, old ( '98) slow Yamaha V-Max.... always being cognisant of where it's pointed when the V-boost hits.

[Sputter]

Yes, still have a few 2 wheelers for now! Thinking about changing a couple to make room for Ryker?

 

[Wahrsuul]

I could but I don't. Probably won't either. The main reason for the Spyder: The wife is partially disabled. She got to where she wouldn't ride with me on nay two-wheel as she was afraid to get on/off the bike. Worried it or she might fall. So it got to where I was only riding back and forth to work, so I got rid of the bike. We talked about an RV, but after a while, we looked at Spyders and she thought she'd ride one of those. So we got the '14 RTS. She's ridden a few times and really enjoys getting out, but she's only good for an hour or so. Still, it gets her out of the house for a while. We're looking for a trailer so we can get further away from home with it.

I could still own a bike, but I don't see the need. If I'm still enjoying the Spyder in a couple years, maybe an F3 for my commuting would be fun.

 

[Garf]

At 72 the Spyder has been a blessing for the long haul trips. Although, I still like to take the old BMW K75 out for some "wind in the hair fun.

 

[Northofthesix]

I bought the Spyder because I was having increasing difficulty at low speed handling my last 2 wheeler (2009 Yamaha Royal Star Venture)... seemed silly to have two bikes when I have difficulty enough finding time to ride 1. Sold the Yammy on the weekend.

 

[Bangorbob]

I just bought my 2012 RTS and still have my 2013 V Star 1300 deluxe. At 69 and joints that don't work so well, I am hopefully going to wean myself off of 2 wheels. Wife said she feels better with me on the spyder anyway.

 

[HayRog]

With me probably the issue is age and cost. If younger perhaps would have both but not worth the cost of maintaing them nor the risk as my abilities on the two wheeler dimimished as time moves on. Just my thoughts....:thumbup:

I'm in the same boat as Chupaca.
If I hadn't sold my FJR though, I'd still be riding it, although admittedly, not as many miles per day I ride the Spyder. Be more a "go for a coffee" an hour away bike.
