Thanks ALL for the positive support! Even though still got the XS Venturer 1100, it stays under cover in garage, carbs and fuel tank drained. Not riding as of yet, even though I easily could. When told by surgeons and docs. that even a trip and fall could permanently warrant a wheel-chair, I opted for no more stress for wife, and after some 50yrs. of riding decided I played the odds fairly well. The XS11 will obviously be my 'go-to' bike whenever I 'feel' the need to ride. Previously riding LD rides was always the 'place' I felt very comfortable doing. Still there mentally, just opted to give riding a break from me
