This is the bike I should have purchased in Oct of 2017 when I instead bought a 2012 Tiger 1200 Adventurer. I'd likely still have it with a bunch more smiles.

I have some sentimental attachment to it but my riding has been little to none for a while. Maybe I’ll find something fun to scratch the itch if it sells. 
This was my dealer’s personal bike that I stumbled across several years ago. I was friends with him and this is about the last bike he had before he committed suicide.

Love the color, and that looks like a pretty nice deal.  I have been debating getting a dual sport after I get rid of the Concours.

The Tiger doesn’t sit that high. The seat is adjustable and the Sargent is the low version. I’m 5’5 and comfortable with it. 🤷🏻‍♂️

‘I chuckled at the “it sits too high comment.”  Maybe Mike was thinking of the Tiger 1200.

Or maybe he was simply thinking, you know how that goes.

It's gone. Not sure how I feel about not having a motorcycle for the first time since I was twelve.

If I can I would like to replace it with something fun, maybe a Tuono or another Speed Triple.

That would be scary not having at least one to jump on when nice riding days come around.  Riding brings a certain pleasure that is different from anything else.

I find myself getting itchy and a bit (extra) cunty.

I was shockingly disappointed in the Tuono I rode at MotoGP.  It would be a lower choice than the CF Moto.  Of course a big part is something many don't care about; electronics.  They were from the 90s.  But also just all around it felt unrefined and not in a "character" way.  Just meh.  

 

Africa Twin?  A++  100% of people would ride again.

 

The Suzuki was surprisingly good.

‘kind of relieved. Kept waking up dreaming about your bike.
