My ideal blank canvas is a 1980s UJM. Mine is a 1980 Suzuki GS850G. Modern tires, steel brake lines, progressive springs front and rear (in retro chrome of course), soft luggage and a small, quick-release windscreen allow the bike to be converted in minutes from a classic naked UJM into a wonderful touring bike.

I actually like the Triumph a lot. It may be “plain” but sometimes less is better. The Honda Fury doesn’t appeal to me much at all though. Its a bit more extreme.

I’m more of a restoration guy so I tend to keep ‘em stock or use bolt-on accessories that can be easily removed without changing the basic design/structure. I’ve spent way too many hours fixing the dreaded previous owner’s alterations and screwups. I’m not against customizing, just not for me. Many a fine Harley frame has been trashed to create a chopper. : ^ ( My brother even did it to a 1936 EL, the first-year knucklehead.
