    Keep it, turn it into a scrambler and have some fun in the dirt.

    Further to your option 2 - upgrade it to 1200cc, stage 3 or 4 to experience what people on the internet said "run like a raped ape" you could sell it and get an XR1200 - its still a Sportie and ie already has the 1200 kit in it (plus a few engine extras from the factory such as 10.0:1 compression, cams, oil cooled heads). They go quite well for a 1200 and they handle very well (for a Harley).

    OK.
    Am an old cunt very near his use by date.
    So's this, .... any way.
    Years ago in Adelaide South Australia, there was a motorcycle shop down , ah I forget, Wayville or not far from Claridge Holde, where I was Apprentice Spray painter, for 3 months then ditched it, god I fucken carry on, must be this Covert 19, anyway, would go in there with like a K2 750 Honda Four and drive out with a 1968 HK 186S two door monaro, or go in there with a TS400 Suzuki, and go out with  RT1 360 Yamaha two stroke with the peanunt tank , sorry BLACK, with red pin stripping tank, which I then swapped for a K2 750 Honda again, to be latter swapped for an 1966 HD white holedn station wagaon, with a 161, speicial motor evidently. From there I swapped the wagon, to a, nearly.. XT750 Yamaha twin, pheww, that was a close one, you now the one with omni phase matsterbater, which blew its gaskets at, oh, id better go,. But what Mr, Swappo, did, was another CB750 Honda four. But the other, bmotorcycles, being like another 30 at least, were fun.
    My point is, thinngs have changed, as we changhed bikes in the old days, before tyres.
    Does anyone like to do a swap, from my pristine Road Glide to an XR1200 as below,?
    My tiime is limited, and Icannot tour any more.Details to ffollw soon,. Must have motorcycle 
    in shed, even if can not walk .
    Organise things sooon.
