Me Too! Sort of, not a racer but did a few long distance endurance rides (Iron Butt stuff like 1,000 miles/24 hours and rallies)
I used to ride a Yamaha Virago, then a Suzuki Savage and when I couldn't keep up with my husband, got a 1999 Kawasaki Concours, brand-new. After some modifications to "lower" it, I rode the snot out of it all over the US, long distance rallies, and the like. Then my daughters became teenagers which keeps you around the house more.
Now they are adults, and the husband says, I'd like to know what the deal is with a Harley Davidson. So instead of divorcing him like other middle-aged wives would do, I grabbed my purse and said let's go. He has a 2016 H-D Ultra Electra Glide 103, too heavy for me to ride alone SOOO he had to "pay a Harley Tax" which means I have a 2021 H-D Softail Street Bob 114 - Aug 12, 2021. Started with 6 miles, now has nearly 2,000 miles. The bike and I still trying to get used to each other. Doesn't corner like my Concours, more powerful than any bike I've had. But I like it so far.
