I would love to ride it back to Kansas, but it sounds like it has a good home in Idaho.

That is a good price on the Voyager! I paid $2500 more for my Wing and they are the same year!

Thank you, Brother Bill.

If it passes your inspection, and it is mechanically sound, I will certainly buy it for $500.

Maybe add a trailer hitch so that you can tow the zong to Moab.

That's true, but your Honda had some serious advantages. For one, it was already in rideable condition. Also, the Hondas will always be more desirable than Kawasaki's, and have a much bigger following. Also the Honda will handle much better, and is literally about 150 pounds lighter. I think you got a good bike for a good price.

That can certainly be done! I have seen many pictures of Hondas towing dirt bikes. Indeed, I am quite jealous of that arrangement.

This is exciting! I'm looking forward to the Spudification of a touring bike.

After much prayer and deliberation I have decided to make an offer on that Interceptor. It's been listed for over two weeks now, and I think I can make a low but fair and probably acceptable offer. The owner is moving, and needs the money immediately for a property purchase in Spokane.

The last Interceptor that I owned was one generation earlier than this one, and in reality, in many ways was a superior motorcycle. With that said, this final generation interceptor is also a highly desirable machine. Of all the motorcycles that I have sold over my life, this is probably the one that I missed the most, along with my Harley-Davidson Super Glide T Sport.

Some of you may have noticed that none of us are getting any younger. I am starting to realize, that if I am going to have at least one more high-performance sport bike in my life, sooner is probably better than later.

If Spud can put 50,000 miles on a Sierra I can't even imagine how many miles he could put on a tourer... Look out iron butt challenge! |

Beautiful bike Doc! I've never ridden a sport bike or sport tourer... I'd imagine I'd get in a lot of trouble if I did! I can't even fathom how much power that would have!
