      I am at a point in my life, (70 in April), that I need to part with a few bikes.
      As of right now, I am keeping the 1100E.

        I don't blame you on either the decision to part with a few or the one you're keeping. It gets to the point in life where you decide you need to get rid of some stuff.

        Is your 1100 a 1982 model? I always thought that year was the best looking of the 1100's.

      I've owned my 1150 since 1999. A couple of GSs preceded it.

        Currently have 3 in the stable. (Along with a Triumph) At least 2 of them, maybe all 3, will be for sale this spring

          If you have two should you vote twice?
          Believe in truth. To abandon fact is to abandon freedom.

            I currently have 2. Told the wife I would sell the 850 when I get the 1100 road reliable... but we'll see.

            You always need a back-up.

              IMG_0124.jpg I still have 2 1983 GS1100e, 1 1982 GS1100e, 1 1984 GS1150, and, 2 Bandit 1200’s. The 1150e is a project, and one of the Bandits is a project. And, a 1984 RM250 and a 2003 DR-Z250 if we count dirt bikes. I’m still in the denial phase, at 62, I hope I can still ride ok till 75.
