    On a sort of serious note; you may want to try and find an Amigo/ Rodeo Sport with a removable hard top as the soft top may be cold, and may get chewed up, in those Chicago winters. The Harley would definitely be fun, and you, Gill and I would need to find time to ride together. If you could swing it having the VX AND the Harley would be the way to go (for me), but either way I'm sure you'll have a great time.

    I had one of these in PA. The soft top was fine for the winter the heater wors great. A friend put a plastic see thru curtain in his to get it to heat up quicker. The only caveat put the top on before it gets cold it shrinks and does not go on easy in the cold. BTW the 4cyl is a light weight and will slow down going up hills. I drove mine across the county twice as well as up and down the country 2x.

    Well, my plans were foiled again! the guy decided to sell it to a woman in Cali for $100 more than I was offering and he had to spend that much to get the AC recharged and take time off work for the truck to pick it up for shipping. He's dumb! It wasn't meant to be...

    Still frustrated with the VX. I am waiting on a backordered driveshaft that ran me about $650 plus $240 in labor... It won't be in until right before I leave for Cali if I'm lucky. After already spending this much on the same problem a few months back I sure hope that this is the problem... Otherwise I am going to have a heart attack due to increased frustrations.

    Cross your fingers for me folks...

    On another note... I already have the gear for riding a motorcycle... I just need the bike and I fit perfectly on the Sportster 48! No tattoos for me... I'm a chicken.

    It's just a matter of taking the riders course and coming up with another $5k! And if the VX keeps eating into my funds for the 48 I might never get it!!!

    Have a good night everyone...
