I put 2 x the miles on my bikes (Yamaha V-Max and Suzuki DR650E Enduro-dual sport) each year compared to my cobra. It's just easier to ride 'em and clean every few weeks or less vs taking care of the custom paint each time the snake comes home or goes out of her den. Also my Max has a unique power-type thrill that even exceeds the cobra's. Don't get me wrong, I love the cobra, always something new and lots of fun gawkers, and for nights out, grand touring and such she's going to be a lot of fun in the future, just not as many miles
