Shortly after I married in 1972, my new wife made me sell my cherished
Triumph Bonneville :(
Some years ago, my wife left. She said, "Either your rifles go or I go." I
bought another rifle. She overestimated her relative importance.
Some months back, it came to me that I no longer had a wife to tell me I
couldn't have a motorcycle. I bought a Triumph Speedmaster. Oh the joy! the
freedom! the exhilaration!
Regards,
Bob...

By all means, marry. If you get a good wife, you'll become happy;
if you get a bad one, you'll become a philosopher.

My only Pentax cameras are the two *ist DS that I bought last year.
I worked for a Honda motorcycle dealership in the late 1970s
as Parts Department Manager. Over the years, I've had the '75
CB400F, '79 CB750F, '81 CB900F and '87 VFR700F. Good
machines, all of them.
I got one new Pentax last year. The year is young so far for further
acquisition.
As for Honda motorcycles, did you ever come across the CB400N Auto, which
my
local independent motorcycle sales manager ran? I tried to find one for
commuting at the time, but the few I saw had been through courier
ownership
and were knackered. I had a CB250N at that time before my 250 & 350LC &
YPVS
Yamaha days. Not allowed a bike anymore :-(
