I agree with that, though I did quit riding motorcycles. My last bike was a BSA Victor, a 441 cc single cylinder. Twice on the freeway, I had cars changing lanes right at me. Just too weird. Plus, the drawbridges in Seattle have a steel grating for a lot of the roadway surface, not a problem in an auto but a motorcycle will do an unsettling short of weird shimmy. Never piled up from it or even really came close, but it freaks you out nonetheless. Someday if I get a Jay Leno style garage i’d like to get a Bultaco 250 and cherry it out.

A Suzuki X6 would also be a lot of fun. I drove one of those when I was 15. In New Mexico they let you get a “scooter license” when you were 13.
