Came across this while looking for something much less expensive and couldn't help but think it belonged here.

Oooh, specific colour scheme.

It may not be what you were referring to but that's true. Many a 'returning' rider is financed by a bequest.

Two of my current new bikes were when my dear old dad left me a land tank. Cars are expensive when bought new. Certainly not worth it.
Not sure about the 'returning' bit.

I had a couple of people I know in mind when I wrote that. One bought a Tesla about a year after her dad died. One bought a new Honda 1300 cruiser courtesy of his late mum. I might have mentioned this before but when I heard he was buying a bike after many years I asked his wife if he'd like some books to read. She assured me he'd figure it out. A short time later I asked how he was doing, the bike was away for repairs. "A dog ran out." He shoulda read the bloody books.

Sisters hubby had a mate;. Wrote off a cop car.
The excuse was Black labrador. At night.

That became a running joke for unlikely excuses.
