I need a motorcycle. This isn’t a “want” anymore… I need one. Bad. I gotta have a bike.
I’m putting up 3 of my favorite, best shooting rifles, for sale or trade so I can get a bike.
1. A Remington 700 Stainless CDL .223 with a Nikon Monarch scope on it. Yes, this the new new one I just got.
2. The Savage model 12 with a Leupold VariX III in .22-250. Harris bi-pod. Serious accuracy and was my best Coyote Murder Weapon when I was hunting them. Use Hornady 55 grain V-Max loads and nothing is getting away from it.
3. This one shows how serious I am… Savage 10FCP topped with a Vortex Viper 6.5-20×50 Mil Dot scope and a Harris bi-pod.
2500 bucks for all three or for a decent cruiser style motorcycle 750cc’s or bigger. If you have a nicer motorcycle… I’ll throw in a couple more guns. Another reason, I have got to have a second vehicle. My truck is the only vehicle we have. The wife can drive it when she’s staying out in the country… but when I need to come into town, I need something more economical anyways… and I bike is impossible to beat for that. I gotta have one.
Ogre-San – those are nice guns. Just a thought: you might see a nicer bike for that money if you would accept so-called “standard” bikes, ie Honda 750, etc. SOme of those old standards are dynamite bikes and stone reliable, even as they age. I’ve had a few, and only one was over 750 – a Kawi Concours. Right now I have a Victory Hammer 8-Ball (my one really nice thing that I allow myself, even thought it’s a bigger chink of the budget than it should be – you know what I mean….), and an old Honda 360 – I’m told I look like the proverbial circus bear when riding the little Honda, but I always have a big smile when I do. Enjoy your bike when you get it, and wear the effing helmet – one crack up and your kids get a vegetable instead of a father…Enjoy
I’ve owned a few Hondas in 750… I like them. The bike I’d love to buy if I had the money is one for sale locally… an old Shadow 1100.
I always wear a helmet.
