Has anyone else noticed the quote feature malfunctioning? The poster’s quote does not copy inside my reply. I have to go back and do it again in edit mode.

@muth it’s a function of the forum software, and is time based. It appears as if someone posts, and you quote and reply, sometimes the software THINKS it is too soon, and will “confuse” people (LOL), it removes the quote. IF however, more time has passed since the OG post which was quoted, it lets the quote slide.

I responded to this maybe an hour or two ago and my post disappeared

(maybe this explains why, after 20-something years, I’ve suddenly developed an almost instinctual urge to get another motorcycle)

Do it! Not only does it scratch your itch but it’s practical in this day and age of rising gas prices. I ponder getting a cargo ebike or etrike (with a pirate flag on it)

If you’re as vertically challenged as me, go see how well you sit on a Honda Rebel. That’s what I have an eye on. But first, I unfortunately don’t have a garage, so I need to get a carport built because I won’t have another bike always sitting in the rain.

Neither do I but I’ll still check out the Rebel, thx.
I like it! Wasn’t really looking for one but it’s tempting. The Fury is something but the Rebel 500 would be perfect for me I think. Below is the Fury.

Too heavy a beast for me just to putt around town, but at least it’s liquid cooled

For sure. I would never consider it, just admiring the look. I built a 2025 Rebel 500 on their site just for kicks. I didn’t include saddle bags but I would want/need them.

Don’t forget a kit to flip the mirrors down

Same, but for lack of garage space, and a back seat. Just last thursday I came this close → ← to picking up a 2021 HD Iron 883. Before I had a Yamaha 750 Maxim X with their Genesis engine. You 'mericans were limited to 700CC.
