Well said! I, too, sold my bike and bought an Explorer. I've had no regrets.

Really nice watch...

Last year I sold a 1984 Porsche to fund my Rolex hobby, I picked up a GMT, then traded it for a Submariner Transitional Matte dial Submariner... Never looked back, don't miss the car at all...

This was a good transaction. The number one head injury among men over 40 is from a motorcycle accident and statistically almost everyone who drives a motorcycle will get into at least one crash. The watch won't cause any head trauma and it is beautiful to look at.
