Well, here we go again.
It's been a couple years since I owned a motorcycle. I'm not sure I would call the last one I owned a total and unequivocal success, but like most things in life (hopefully) you can learn a little along the way. And so I have determined that a long and slow moving motorcycle is not my kind of fun. Sure there were days and occasions opposite to this statement, but in general terms it really wasn't. I tried. And now, I'm trying something else. And now, for something completely different.
I've gone and done. And during a time in which financially speaking I shouldn't have done it. By 'it' I certainly mean getting back into motorcycle ownership. Time's they have been easier financially speaking in some previous years, but that's not what this blog will be about. However, that being said I have found a new direction (in motorcycling terms) that will (hopefully) fit within such parameters of frugality and reason (but probably won't).
Anyway, enough about that and on with the show. And this next show is going to start with a 1983 Yamaha XV750 Virago. Yep, the bike that didn't know disco was out and rock n roll was in. However, we are about to change that part. For good.
Day one. February 2016. After first 30 mile ride from purchase location to work. Lots to do. Ugh... lots to do.
My hope is to chronicle my Yamaha's trek from disco to rock. Hopefully, we'll mostly stay in tune along the way.
A one, a two, a three...
