I didn't choose the cruiser life it chose me
Honda Shadow (1999) Ottawa, Canada
Thanks to @ssloan for lending me the Shadow for the day! Slightly different from my Triumph Explorer 1200.

I need to do 1,500 kms to roll it over 100,000. I have to say this tho, it's more comfortable than the F6B Honda Bagger.

@yebogogo64 me and the F6B don't get along. While I love the engine, I didn't not like the riding position, and nor did I like stubby screen. It's more windy and noisy than the wife's fully-naked Street Triple.

@Alex No worries, the roads to my particular spot in northeast Ohio are so straight, you'll fall asleep before you get here. 😃 If you ever to pass through here, RoadRunner magazine did an article on the Lake Erie Tour this month: http://www.roadrunner.travel/magazine/read/september-october-2013/page/52/

@agent3012 - that's right. Kick me while I'm down (which thankfully the police didn't). I may just have to come over to Ohio (I think?) just to prove I'm not that incompetent

@Alex My FZ6 is fortunately well-insured, but I'd have to make sure it wouldn't be confused for a Toronto Police motorcycle before the keys were handed over. 😉

@Agent3012 - that sounds like a great idea. What would it take for you to lend me your bike for a couple of days for example?

One of the best parts of having a wide range of rider friends is being able to share the different approaches to two wheels. Maybe ESR needs to setup a bike- exchange trial program between members? 😉
