Re: Steel Horses, any in your barn?
Here's mine. Haven't ridden kilted -- not sure if that's a "yet" or not 

Also have 81 Honda Silverwing GL-500 and a Honda Trail-90 (CT90) but no pics available on this computer.

Thanks!
Took a bit of getting used to -- handles quite a bit different from both a two-wheeler and a trike. Got it mainly for the wife -- straddling the bike after her hip replacement surgery turned out to be a no-no so this is our answer. Does attract attention, though, almost as much as a kilt

Sidecar is a 1999 Champion Legend - it was ordered and paint-matched at the time the motorcycle was purchased by the original owner (I'm the second owner).

Ha. I used to have to help work on a Honda Silverwing back in the nineties. Usually balancing the engine on a jack while the other person tried to put the lug nuts in. I hated that, but it brings back memories. He was rebuilding it one piece at a time.
I tried to ask my inner curmudgeon before posting, but he sprayed me with the garden hose…
Yes, I have squirrels in my brain…

The Silverwing is a sweet bike -- not too big nor too small. I'll probably be putting it up for sale since I don't really need that many rides and, truth to tell, I don't ride it much now that I have the Nomad.
The CT-90's (I have a pair - 1973 and 1974) are for trail riding with my 14 year old son. Tremendous fun!

Re: Steel Horses, any in your barn?
Honda has always made a darn fine cruiser. I'm a bit opinionated. My current scoot is a ACE.
The Nomad is a mighty fine machine as well. Plenty of power, a real sweetheart if you're gentle on the throttle. But give it a good crack and , watch out, she's got giddyup.
