I'm going to be 55 in 2 months and have no plans to ever own or ride a Harley or Gold-Wing. I wouldn't want to try and pick up
a bike that's 800lbs. + if it fell over. I like the rawness of the old triples, and I can go 70mph and feel like I'm doing over a 100.

Those drag diesels all had 4-stroke engines with turbos.
