    Much depends on ergos, at least for me. If I were to stick with the Triumph theme, the new 2025 Speed Twin 900 intrigues me. It's supposed to have a bit taller seat which I'm hoping will equate to just a bit more leg room. I love the Speed 1200, but it doesn't love me.
    I like both of the Kawasakis, but my old leg joints don't like the snug footpeg position.
    The Indian Scout proper is a nice bike but I don't like the Bobber. In fact, I'm not a bobber fan in general, Indian, Triumph etc.
    Good luck with your search.

    But nice to talk about, @joe mc donald! Your dream of a Manx Norton got HH and me off to a great start this morning talking about it. Despite his morning aches and pains, the mention of it enlivened HH with a great smile of agreement.:heart:

    Here are some nice machines currently up for sale, this is a trustworthy dealer, some machines are within reach of mere mortals, with a trusted and respected courier based in the UK should you purchase from him. He recently had a large amount of iconic Hondas for sale, some at very sensible money. Oh as an aside I haven't forgotten about the Rob North write up.

    Oooh, Joe! Please do keep us in the know. I know you...you say you're simplifying and cutting down the stable. Until a bike comes along and touches your heart and becomes a fixture in your thoughts. ;):joy:

    "Hmmmm" when looking at motorcycles is usually the start of something, @Mrs Visor! Or so my husband tells me. ;):joy:

    @joe mc donald

    Ha! I rest my case, Joe. I had just responded to your post about your interest in a Harris Bonneville. Then I saw THIS post that you're (also?!) chasing a Tiger 750. :p
