When I found out there was a place called Disco, Wisconsin, I had to take a ride
and see for myself!

The Concours is a great bike. They're relatively inexpensive compared to other bikes in the
same class, like the Yamaha FJR or Honda ST1300. You can get one new for around $7000,
Granted those bikes are more advanced than the Concours, but I don't think they're $3000 - 5000
more advanced. Even if I had the money to upgrade, I think I'd still buy another Connie. Most
of the modifications I've made to my bike would have to be made to those bikes too, so I'd still
be paying the additional for upgrades on top of the higher base price. That gets expensive if you
have MAD (motorcycle accessory disease) like I seem to have caught. Don't take it from
me though! Listen to the fine folks at the Concours Owners Group Anything you'd possibly want
to know about this bike can be found at their site in great detail. Beware though - they're biased!

Since most of my riding is long distance type rides, I've made a lot of modifications to my bike.
In addition, I like to tinker with things (even though I'm not always so good at it), and
this has proved a good way to keep me busy and out of trouble. That said,
I'm getting close to the point where I can't add much more, so I'll have to find something
else to keep myself occupied.

To give you an idea though of what I've done to this point, here's a list of all my additions.
