That was definitely the case with the Frankenbike. Every time I thought I was close, I’d take it on a long trip and come home with 100 new things that needed to be done.

Eventually someone said it sounds like you’re trying to build a Goldwing…why not just get a touring bike? …so I did 🤣

I would love a Goldwing. I've got a few more years of dual sports left in me though. The more I research Goldwings the more I'm starting to love them. They're the Cadillac of tour bikes IMHO.

Holy shit yeah man - honestly I’ll never go back.

Mine was an ‘83, cherry condition. I sold it in the end for $300 after it rotted in my front yard for two years. Kids make it hard to ride, but no regrets.

When they grow up and move on to build their own lives, I’m 100% getting a spankin’ new Goldwing…one with a reverse gear this time 🤣

LOL, you really need the reverse gear too! I've even seen them with tiny campers you can pull behind. That would be my ideal retirement. Got me thinking now! 🤣

That’s even cooler! I just remember getting stuck in slanted parking lots and having to go through the fight of my life to get it backed out with my little legs 🤣
