you havent a clue where in the house your wedding license is, you think you know the two most likely places you have left your wedding ring, but you know for sure where your Mikes XS cataloge is............

You park next to your buddies 2002 Bonneville T-100 and have to explain (patiently) to passers-by who really like that "old" triumph that your XS is 20 years older.

When you're parking your pristine Heritage at the local convenience store and hear two "now generation" punks talking about how cool it is that Yamaha came out with a "new retro brit type bike"!

if you spend more time on line looking for ways to troubleshoot the charging system rather than riding it.

if your wife wants to sell your stuff you dont use and she look at your bike sitting out side.unfinished. and then you cry and ask for a few more months and you take her shopping in hopes of her forgetting about your bike........oh wait maybe this only applies to me.

You stare blankly at your bike because you think that it will eventually tell you what the problem is.

You know you ride an XS650 if... Ride? You guys get to ride? It feels like all I do is work on mine! lol
This string is SO right on! The cell phone in the pocket with missed calls, the smelly gloves/jeans, the excessive orders from MikesXS, spending more time thinking about my bike than the girl (could be why I'm single...lol) I've been there!!
Steve in Portland
PS: I live in Portland, Maine, so the riding season is a bit short here...but we've had an exceptionally mild winter, I was on my XS on January 13, and January 20th!! Both days were above 45 degrees! And I saw a bunch of other bikes out also...lots of enthusiastic biker waves those days! Spring is almost here, spring is almost here, spring is almost here!!!

You know you ride a XS650 because, no matter where you go someone tells you they used to have one. Greg

You know you ride a TX650A if the little bastard teses you with a few trouble-free rides, then mysteriously refuses to start even though everything appears to be in perfect working order. Arrgghh, I just wish this bike had a neck to wring...
