I did just buy my "newer" bike. I picked up one of the bikes of my dreams Thurs. I brought home a Honda CBR 600 F4. Love it !
I was reading all the sidecar talk in this thread. When my daughter was little, we put a Vetter Terraplane on our GL1100. Yes, it kept me riding, but I was sure happy when it came off. The fun in a motorcycle was just plain gone for me with that attached. I rode with it for only about 3500 miles, but I also never became "that" used to it. All corners take some thought, standing at a stop light does not. If I wanted to keep the family together, out in the air, I would have a convertible instead. Your mileage may vary. I will say though, I rode other Goldwings with sidecars and none I felt were as good as the Terraplane or handled as well. Again, JMHO
WOW, at the price of the CB 750 even. I really like mine, but we all have a price.
