**They’re like two wheeled cars...**

I had an 82 Honda cm450e. It looked like a road bike, but was nimble enough to be used on the farm (checking cattle, mending fence, etc). I was a good commuter, and would get about 56 mpg.

In most of IL corn only is tall enough to hide standing deer from view for about 3 months (mid-June to mid-Sept, where I lived for over 62 years). Then harvest hits full swing and visibility returns.

That’s why I’ve always had a liken for the older Triumph, T-120 Bonneville etc...Set up right they look and sound like a motorcycle should. Not too small, not too big. Btw, the last Harley I had was a 1941 80” ULH flathead side valve. Nickname stump puller...Neat bike when I wasn’t working on it. At freeway speeds it was barely turning over.
