It's got a sold sign on it. So I would think he bought it? That would be bike number 4 unless he sold one. Maybe his vintage Kawasaki Concours? What say you Rich?  ???

Yes Tony,  I bought this yesterday.   Brand new 2018 Concours 14.  And it is #4.   I have been looking at this bike for years.  There were a bunch of sport touring bikes that I was interested in but it always came back to the Concours.
I have never ridden this bike before but I heard it is a beast.

Congratulations Rich! I've heard it's a beast, too! Not sure I'd be able to tame it. I still haven't ridden the GW in Sport Mode.  Embarrassed

How do you decide which bike to ride? I bet Adam's drooling over the chance to ride it, right?  Wink

That's easy, he doesn't ride any. 

Kidding bro, nice bike.  Enjoy.

I also looked at Yamaha Super Tenere,  FJR1300 and the Kawasaki Versys 1000 and the Triumph Trophy.   
All the bikes were very nice in their own way.  I was very close to getting the Triumph last year but it was a little more than I wanted to spend and there really isn't any Triumph dealers around anymore.  Plus the Triumph warranty isn't very good.  The other 3 bikes were nice but they felt skinny and thin as I rode them.
The Concours is bigger and wider and just seem to fit me better.
