Captn Bob,
Hard to answer that one, I could go on bout Style, Value for money, Supurb Engineering, Reliability, but the real answer is in your heart, it's either there or it's not.
Probobly the same reason I've just recently swappwed a very good BMW 100RS for a 58 Tiger and a 68 Bonneville that have been sitting in a shed for 25yrs & also having to suffer the wrath of the wife.
I still can't get rid of this smile I've had since I've done the deal.
