In eight years I'll be 70 and when the wife asks me, "What do you want for your birthday" this will be it. www.motorcycle-usa.com/925/17401/Motorcycle-Article/2014-Kawasaki-J300-Scooter-First-Look.aspxBy then the Fashion will be eleven years old, have about 50,000 miles on it and I'll be ready for a new, or used, one. A Kawasaki built by Kymco with real styling. Who knows? By then they might even be building them in China on the Jetmax platform. Now that would be icing on the cake.

My Dad is 87 and rides his Kawasaki ZR-750 a few times a week. He got it when he turned 75 so I think a 300cc will be in reach for me.

All my 'genetics' point to aircraft on both sides of the family. I never did get a pilot's license though.

I've never been a fan of the Hyabusa. It's like the KZ1400 with its funky plastics. If I was about to go giant crotchrocket it would be one of the 1000cc Superbikes. I like the ZX-10-alot. The Honda CBR1000 is no pooch either. But,......I've done the big, heavy Rocket Ship. Even the light, light sabre Rocket Ship. I'm into small and light now. I guess I'm getting old.

I don't care for all the plastic either. My bandit was the naked bandit. but for fast the hayabusa is still king and as close to flying as most of us will get. Insurance payments even for an old guy would be higher than the loan payments.
