Sad but I find it`s time to sell my hobby bike, my Enfield. Retirement, upcoming prostate cancer surgery, new wife, bad knees, etc. have made it clear that future riding will be on my big fat/soft seated Vulcan.  :'(

Yes, best of luck to you and your new wife. Once was enough for me. I'm divorced with 2 grown daughters. I'm also retired/disabled, with bad knees and a lot of other things. But the rest of my life is going to be mine. I'm keeping my RE, though I have it in long term storage in what used to be my living room with Truefuel (very expensive non ethanol storage fuel) in the tank. I start it up every couple of weeks. This winter (AZ riding season is in the winter) I'm mostly going to be riding the 2006 Harley Sportster 1200 I bought about 3 months ago. I also have a Vulcan (mine is a 750) also in storage. But I want to spend some time on a Harley while I still can. It vibrates considerably more than the RE. You almost need a mouth guard to keep it from shaking your teeth out.
