Well, she did it! Bought the 2018 RT Limited

[Jestmaty]

Carefree, caution to the wind wife of 35 years learned how to ride motorcycles in Sept/Oct of 2019. At 53 years old

She has gone through a 2016 Honda Rebel 250, a 2019 Honda Rebel 500, a 2019 Honda Shadow 750 (still owns), a 2020 Kawasaki Vulcan 900 (still owns), and a 2014 Harley Davidson Dyna Switchback with the 103 cubic inch engine in it !!!!

We traded in one of my bikes and her HD in order to afford this.....

And her 2020 Vulcan 900 Classic that she absolutely LOVES! So she's still going to a two wheeler for a while as well as a three wheel advocate :yes:

Thanks so much.... not pictured are my 04 HD road king, her 2019 Honda Shadow Aero 750, my gorgeous 2015 Yamaha Stryker, and my 07 Honda VTX 1800 Touring (sold today)

We became new riders basically in the summer of 2019, and have purchased 10 motorcycles in just over two years. It been a BLAST to own and ride so many different cycles over the last couple of years, but it's time to pick our favorite two toys and move on. So, we traded in her 2014 Harley Davidson Switchback and my 14 Kawasaki Vulcan 900 custom on this deal.

So, my Vulcan is gone, my Honda VTX 1800 is going away to a forever home this coming weekend. I'm left with HD road king and Yamaha Stryker (both are my babies)

She's left with her new/used Can Am RT Limited, her 2020 Vulcan 900 classic and her Honda Shadow Aero 750. The Aero will be the next to go away.

Owning 7 cycles is fun, but a bit overwhelming and expensive for sure. We've got to simmer down now lol

My Vulcan 900 custom that was part of the trade in on this Can Am deal....

Congrats and enjoy !

She had Motorcycle blood in her veins!!!!! To go from the small CC to bigger CC, increasing UP all the time, in a short amount of time, is a drain on the budget, but great for the fun factor. Maybe for a while it was like "Fear Factor" (old reality TV show) for a while!!!!!!!!!!

have fun!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ride safe,

:bowdown: That's a lot of motorcycles. I have had three at a time for a while now. I have done the same, but with guitars. I currently have 20. Most are a little less expensive than M/C's. :bowdown:
