I just don't talk to the harley riders that much. LOL

Long efore I got my bandit I went over a year without a car, I rode my 79KZ 650 every day for the whole time, snow sucks, so does rain, but if I decide to go for a ride I don't let the weather stop me. I don't ride as much as I would like to anymore due to family obligations and stuff, but I sure do love to get out on the 'ole Bandit whenever possible.

I think minimum riding is a good deal for me. How else would I have an unending supply of late model bikes with no miles on them for bargain prices? LOL Ceptin cruisers, aint never gonna be old enough to ride a cruiser. :-)

Wife and kids keep my ride time low. Began street riding at 16, rode to work often, rainy days too. In my 30's I commuted every day, rain or shine, rode everywhere to avoid driving my cage.
43 yrs of age has found me mostly a weekender and no rain, spent too much time getting her looking this good, plus my BT014 Battleaxes dont like water.
I havent had the bike long, but log several hundred bone dry miles a week, thats probably going to be it.

Until I retired last July I commuted 99% of the time on my motorcycles. I racked up about 100,000 miles since 1994 doing that and some extended vacations on the bike -(shortest 2,500 & longest 8,800) but not everyone does. I bought my Bandit from a Hardley rider who kept scaring himself - the Bandit was exactly one year old and (surprisingly for a Hardley rider) had 1,997 miles on it when I bought it.

It isn't how much you ride or what you ride. It is what makes you happy.

If riding for short distances floats your boat, then go for it.
