I'll take my GS500E for $1200, $36 tax, tags another $35, with title transfer $10 and $100 for insurance for a year. Add another $300 to get it running and riding right.

Whats that $1681? Property taxes are a joke on 20 year old bikes here and it has almost 11k miles on the odometer, and 62 MPG.

I do find it amusing that they are building bikes similar to what they built 40 years ago. I measured my Ninja 300 compared to my now 42 year old CB 350. Basically the same with the Ninja handlebars being 1 inch more narrow, probably for lane splitting in California.

I told my wife today that If it was up to me I would sell the Fiesta and just keep the truck and the bike. She doesn't care for being chauffered around in that old banged up ratty truck and I don't want her on the back of the bike.
