I'm 71. I loved my Harleys but a few years ago I retired them. Initially I bought an Africa Twin which is a great bike but a little tall for me. I traded this for a Royal Enfield Himalayan, which was great but a little small for some of the roads I ran on. I now own a KLR 650 S. It's not perfect but I like it a lot.

The Kawasaki W800 Cafe will kill your back, I ditched the cafe bars and faring, installed DR650 bars and a small windshield. It became a totally different and more comfortable bike.

Knocking 70 and have moved from 1970s triumphs and Nortons to a Ducati 950 and tiger 1050 for longer trips . The old Britβs are still in the garage and used, always will beπ. Now facing the reality that the newer, bigger, heavier and taller machines are becoming problematic. Will eventually move in to the mid range 500 cc or larger bracket. (Smaller displacement isnβt really an option). Will go for comfortable upright riding position, good aero dynamics, handling, light weight and 70+ hp. Also prefer simplicity and reliability not interested in fancy tech other than safety items such as ABS. As for brand everyone has their favourites but in the end practicality and value will win.

I ride a CTX700. Itβs comfortable, torquey and lightweight. Low seat height and relaxed riding position. The only downside is the chain drive. It comes with dct or manual transmission. Fully faired or naked. <br>And itβs a Honda so itβs bulletproof.

Thank you for this video. It would be nice if the camera lingered longer,on the more beautiful bikes.We barely get a chance to see them properly .Just a bit stingy there.

my most comfortable bike is the 76gl1000 the stock seat is perfect pegs and bar placement couldn't be better the newer bikes need this and that to be comfortable

I really liked the Yamaha v-Star 250 it looks good sounds good if I did not need to ride on freeways with 85mph simi trucks I would get one just for around town fun cruses Yamaha has been making them for around 10 years and it would be a fantastic starter bike for 16 years olds and women the big bikes scare and with its light weight but with enough to learn and get the confidence to ride the bigger bikes.
