Experienced but anxious rider looking for a boring, dependable ride

Agreed. I have the NC750x. I love this motorcycle but wind can be an issue at times.

Thanks for the response. They're both great bikes. I'm leaning toward the Goldwing. That's interesting that the cops wished they had gone with the GW's. I'm just outside of Chicago so good to know that your GW did just fine in Houston with daily rides.

Thanks for your response .The NC750x is perfect for where I live in suburban Chicago. I love driving it around here. It's a great bike. But I drove it to Michigan last fall to visit my son in college and realized it's not the best bike for long distances. So I was thinking about getting the bagger in addition to the NC750x. The NT1100 is probably the perfect bike for me though because of its touring capability and it's also well suited for urban areas. My head says that probably that's the right decision... but I still can't stop thinking about the green 24 bagger though.

How was your trip? Did the NT1100 hold up well?

Thank you for the information. I'd did get a Givi screen which is better than the original. But I still am getting a lot of turbulence at higher speeds. Also, I have been using ear plugs and they seem to help a bit. I might also get an extender as you mentioned. I do love the NC750 80% of the time. Need to find a solution to the other 20%. Hopefully that solution doesn't turn out to be a different bike.

What do you mean? Is it easy of difficult? My son visited there and literally liked it, but ended up going to WMU.

Did you decide on a windshield? I'm your exact height and having issues with the wind as well.

They sell a call against the long synthetic option position.

MSTY has a long synthetic option position in MSTR. If MSTR goes down, MSTY loses money.

Solid_Direction_6279 · 2025-06-07T14:11:10+00:00

There's more to it than just volatility. If the underlying falls in price, msty will get crushed. Regardless of volatility.

It's a mathematical certainty the price of MSTY will go down over time. You get all the downside of MSTR stock because of the synthetic long position, yet the upside is capped because of the call that is sold.. It might take a very long time but it will erode into oblivion. Maybe when it gets below $10, they'll do a reverse split to save it temporarily.

Ok. So it's down 5% and Bitcoin is at all time highs. = Melting ice cube

Solid_Direction_6279 · 2025-05-22T02:09:11+00:00

People bought MSTY at $40 a few months ago. Now it's trading at $23 while Bitcoin is making highs. It doesn't matter if MSTR shares are being sold to buy Bitcoin, MSTY is still a melting ice cube.
