The other factor is that Ive been into bikes long before I was Mustangs but it just was not pratical nor could I afford one when I was in my teens. The Mustang ride has lasted for over 10 yrs now I dont see the issue in getting into something that I always wanted to but never got the chance to. If I was having $$$ issues I would not be committed to paying a bike payment and the ins on one which is not cheap or would I have spent $800 on suspension 3 wks ago.
