Hey ~jack!

I'm feeling the pain.

~bartender? Just coffee with cream and sugar, and maybe a jar of that home made lemonade ... it's hot on the terrace, so I better go for the shade in the garden ... thank you so much!

Coincidently, I'm at a similar point. My KTM LC8 Adventure from 2003 or so is collecting dust. It's too hot already for my taste. And I have almost never just taken a ride, for riding sake. I have almost always wanted to go from A to B and back home. I have commuted between home and workplace with the Kati many times. She has collected over 120000 km. She has scars and little defects, or lets call it character? But I'm less and less in shape to take her for a ride. And I'm ready to pass her on to someone else just for a brighter future on the road or trail again. I'd even give her away for very little in exchange, a good meal would do.

My first bike was a Yamaha SR500, and I gave her away after collecting some 100000 km in favor of the Kati. And I collected my first 15000 or so km on a Suzuki DR650 (iirc) cruising the Desert South West (Arizona, Utah, Colorado, New Mexico, Southern California). Ah, fond memories of time long gone.
