 I need some opinions from the guys that own both versions of the Drifter.
i presently have a 2001 vn 800 and have stumbled across a 1999 vn 1500 for sale that i am thinking of getting. I do know the aesthetic and mechanical differences and am more interested in the psychological aspects.
Which one gets ridden more? Which one has the best dependability on a long haul. I am assuming that the 800 is more about show and tell around town and the 1500 is the hyway cruiser.  Hypothetically, lets just say that your wife was only letting you keep one,( because you already own 3 other bikes and how many do you really need?). Which one would you get rid of ?  The 800, the 1500, or the wife?
Thanks for any input. I will be gone from this site Feb13-21 and will read your posts when I get back.
By then I will have figured out a way on how to spring the news to a wife I may, or may not, have.

Rob
