Part of the problem is that since other vehicles occupy all of my garage space, the old 300 sits outside in the rain & occasional snow. It is rugged enough to endure that sort of neglect, although its reliability and character make it deserving of a garage spot. However, if the Alfa went outside it would biodegrade back to the basic earth elements in no time, and the GTX, well...it sits where it has been for years, under a cover & up on jackstands. My Ducati 888 is presently in my living room, right here beside my computer, (it makes a great coffee table and coat rack) and I ride the Scrambler year round.
