Had several other bikes at the same time for a while. Don't quite have the time to spend on each and was getting a little tired of maintaining three only to ride one most of the time. When the wife quit riding, I decided to sell the other two and I kept the Vaquero. May get another as an around town bike or for the missus if she decides she'd like to ride on occasion.

I almost always have 2 bikes or more. Currently restoring a 1972 Yamaha XS650 that my dad bought new.
Looking for a Buell XB9R that I can take to the track. |

I currently own a 2017 Vaquero, 2006 Yamaha Roadstar Midnight and a 2007 BMW R1200 GS Adventure. Love them all but the BMW will be leaving soon as the endless repair bills and no local dealers have made keeping it not worth the trouble.

You have a Cafe? I'm building one now with a 1975 CB750, I intend on putting inverted forks from GSXR. What bike do you have?

Wow! Nice Moto guzzi, love the color. I like the cafe culture and history. Moto Guzzi may have been the first to introduce a modern Cafe Racer. I've been using my CB750 this summer and will "cafe" it as a winter project.

My '15 Vaquero is long range riding or when I want to listen to music or need luggage space, even around town. I also have a '17 Suzuki M109R which, though still a cruiser, is a totally different experience and a badass looking bike even stock.

PLUS we can not ride (Snow and Salt), and that hurts the most. Now I envy You, and the weather you have.

Other bike
I love my Vaquero and it gets ridden the most but sometimes I still get the notion to go fast. My other bike is a 2004 Kaw ZZR1200C.

I have a 2009 Yamaha V Star 1100 Classic. I bought it brand new with zero miles in 2014.It is an excellent bike that hits 90mph lickedy split. I have topped it out at 105mph. The only downside is that it is carbeurated.
